Thanks Sailor Michael that is exactly what i have been looking for. I did find one they use today. and got many pictures of it. I also found frame drawings for the same boat and started making it. The model will be made cheaply with planks of basswood and a lot of glue, but it will look great...

i seen this model on a japanese site. They were selling it for a lot of money. I then found it on a site that someone scanned all the pages of the book and posted it as a free model on the internet. Isn't that called pirateing? :cry: :joust1: John

still looking yep, after looking at the diagrams carefully you are right about the vietnamese boat. I was there and because i was in the mountains i never saw their boats in the delta region. as for the korean boat the sails should look more like that of the vietnam model. The Howpaper...

confused people re-worded by popular conjecture. This thread happens to be posted in the ship & watercraft model section because it is posted in this area I assumed that the readers here would aknowledge the fact that a Junk is a sailing vessel. If the readers don't understand the...

Hi All,sign1 I have a special request. I am looking for a real good Chinese Junk model. Does anyone know of a free model or free model plans? I havn't seen any around but I hoping for someone to have hid one in an archive somewhere. All links will be appreciated. Thank You...

I didn't have a frame and could of wacked myself for not putting one in and the reason i say that is because most ship decks have a convex shape to allow water to drain to outside edges of deck. my model does not show this cause I forgot to add formers:cry: when I continue setting up the...

lapse of time in ship building I know everyone interested is waiting for something new to come out of this project but at this time i have a pressing problem I am trying to finish before summer is over. I decided to build a real rowboat out on my deck. It's called a 12 ft Jon Boat and although...

scale 1:96 metric Revell came out with model many years ago after me making the plastic model for 20 years they sold rights to Germany. the model then went out into lala land and i couldn't find it again. Several years ago the German company decided to start it again and it lasted for about 2...

This is a model that I am presently designing. It is my first large undertaking. Bear with me if you interested. the images you will see at this time are in a prototype stage, which means the final parts for the model will be clearer and more precise. The link to my images is here...

what ever happened to the one that was built out of paper drinking straws? I built that one long ago.

If I need things like hinge pins for models I take plain paper and roll it as thin as I can then pour super glue down core to stiffen works for me.

does that thing move by itself like that and move around the table to boot?? I don't remember the site cause the info went with the crash but maybe someone else knows where it is. The site not only had moving models but it also had templates for the many parts and ways of them being used...

gee jazzman isn't that what I said Thing was I told them so they would understand all the time. I also added my explanation to all my groups. this way other people can copy the information and repeat it also.

you did it good thing you got that engine tethered off with that wire it could really go swinging around the room with that plasma flowing out. WOW great effect.:twisted: Now how about a tinny humming coil wrapped around a steel core. need a engine sound.:-o John

let's see if I remember I used ALZIP to open the ALZ file. I had to change the name of 1 of the files in order to open it. a00 is a data file that goes with Alzip program file with ALZ extension. I just opened and saved a file from Finalpaper that was compresed that way. Both the ALZ and...
