model ship kits

Post by Hobbyman2 »

If you are a hobbyist there is a place that sells wooden ship building kits and some tools for working very small pieces . I have no connection in any way with this site ,while scanning for hobbies I ran across their product and thought maybe it could give ideas on using the small pieces of scrap wood in the shop. This winter a lot of our scrap went into the wood stove and took up a bit of space. tossing away wood that cost by the bd/ft can be a waste of good $$. pretty sure the SS can break down the pieces , https://www.modelerscentral.com/getting-started/

Another place I use is Micro-Mark. I have found their modeling tool section to be quite extensive. Their address is http://www.micromark.com.

thanks for the link , working with small stuff can make it easier working when working with the bigger stuff , one of the first projects I had as a kid was helping a uncle build a scenic railroad with paper machete mountain tunnels and a fake river with wooden bridges a train yard a town with crossings and a 1/32 slot car track. It took up 3 sheets of plywood had 2 transformers and 2 control centers .
