How to build the Head Rail assemblies on the Constitution? - Moved by Moderator


Recommended Posts

Is there some information available that would allow me to build the Head Rails on the USS Constitution?

Model Expo tells me they have sold 100's of this model with no questions about the head rails. I hope therefore there is somebody out there who knows how and would be willing to share.

modeller,

 

I haven't reached this stage in my own Connie build as yet, so I cannot help you with your question.

 

However, if you were to do a search of the kit-based forum for MS, Model Shipways & Constitution, I'm certain you would find the answer to your problem.

There are a great number of extremely talented builders on here who have helped me with ways, means and ideas.

 

This list is by no means complete - and my apologies to anyone I have missed - but just some of my favourites which I'd recommend you might like to check are builds by:

modeller12, briddoch, CapnHarv2 and Geoff Maston.

Check out my build log pictures on page 1, they may be of some help to you. There are a few other Conny build logs on here that will help you also.

I moved this to the Wood Ship Model Kit Questions and Reviews as it's more appropriate there.
