Ferrus Manus Posted May 28 Share #1 Posted May 28 Has anyone ever seen a picture of a working oyster smack? Specifically the equipment they use to haul up oysters? I swear I saw an image of an oyster smack hauling up some kind of net somewhere, some time. thibaultron 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Lad Posted May 28 Share #5 Posted May 28 perhaps very fine wire mesh like the filters found in some garden spray pumps? John thibaultron, Ferrus Manus and mtaylor 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thibaultron Posted May 29 Share #6 Posted May 29 Model Expos sells the plans for the Willie Bennett kit seperately. They frequently have discounts for the plans sets. There are also some pictures in my stalled, but soon to be revived Pyro Oydter boat thread As well as drawing details in my thread on going from a 2D to 3D tutorial. mtaylor 1 Quote Ron Thibault Shipjack Carrie Price from Pyro kit, with upgraded detailing and history.
