gagliano1770 Posted September 13, 2021 Share #1 Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Greetings, Shipwrights! I'm reluctantly posting this list for sale. I got into ship modeling about 20 years ago. With stars in my eyes I bought a bunch of kits, custom wood packages, practicums, and tools; I fantasized about the stunning ships I would build. Now, my wife and I are considering downsizing into a smaller place and I've come face-to-face with the hobby that I started with gusto but have neglected in recent years. All kits are untouched. Let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for taking a look at my stuff!

Dsmith20639 Posted September 13, 2021 Share #2 Posted September 13, 2021 And I thought that I went overboard when I started this hobby! I have 4 recently purchased model kits still in my queue to do, but I've finished 5 so far and working on my 6th. Hope you at least had the opportunity to start and finish a couple. None of these kits are for beginners. As the saying goes, "looks like your eyes were bigger than your stomach". If I had the time left in life and wasn't so deep into things myself already.... mtaylor 1 Current build: Armed Virginia Sloop Previous Builds: , Amati Fifie, Glad Tidings,Bluenose II, Chesapeake Bay Skipjack, Fair American, Danmark, Constitution Cross Section, Bluenose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjay Posted September 13, 2021 Share #3 Posted September 13, 2021 Hi Glen, what is the finished size of the Kingfisher and is it cherry wood?

gagliano1770 Posted September 13, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted September 13, 2021 That's a good question, Mark. I'm looking back at my emails from the time and not seeing anything regarding size complete. I don't think it's a huge model - less than 30 inches long, though the kit is very heavy. I think it's majority boxwood. I'll try to find out for sure. mtaylor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for you! I did a lot of work on the Bluenose. Got to the rigging and haven't made much progress. mtaylor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonflyxlii Posted September 13, 2021 Share #7 Posted September 13, 2021 Hi I would be interested in the "Faor American" if it is not alreaady claimed. Send me a note. THanks, Dave mtaylor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Pellett Posted September 13, 2021 Share #8 Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Glen, I’d be interested in the Byrnes sander at $160 plus shipping. I don’t have a Paypal account or any thing like that. I propose to send you a check and you send me the sander when you cash it. Send me a PM with details. BTW, I believe that one of the miter gages goes with the sander. Roger Edited September 13, 2021 by Roger Pellett mtaylor and Bob Cleek 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagliano1770 Posted September 13, 2021 Author Share #9 Posted September 13, 2021 Hello, Roger, I've already been approached about the sander. I'll let you know if it doesn't go through. mtaylor and Roger Pellett 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatsinc2000 Posted September 13, 2021 Share #10 Posted September 13, 2021 Kingfisher is 1:48 and is Castello boxwood. Check out the label on the box. The Fair American was milled in cherry. I produced the wood for both kits.
