Download or read book Ship Models from Kits written by Dr David Griffith and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2011-02-28 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past thirty years the world of model kits has undergone a veritable revolution. New techniques in injection moulding have improved the scale accuracy and surface detail of the humble plastic kit, while many specialist companies now produce top-quality resin models, vastly broadening the range of subjects on the market. However, the really radical change has been the advent of photo-etched brass fret, which allows the finest detail to be reproduced to scale. In ship modelling, this has resulted in a new form of the hobby, mid-way between traditional build-from-the-box simplicity and the time-consuming demands of fabricating everything from scratch. These new materials have prompted innovative techniques, which are comprehensively demonstrated in this new manual. Designed for those wishing to achieve the best results from their ship kits in the 1:700 to 1:350 range of scales, it uses step by step photographs to take the reader through the building of two models, one in plastic and one in resin, from basic construction, fittings and detailing, to painting, finishing and display. Written by a highly experienced, award-winning ship modeller, the book is a showcase for the contemporary approach to the hobby.

Download or read book Model Marine Steam written by Stan Bray and published by US Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stan Bray provides all the information a ship modeler needs to power a model boat using a live steam power plant. A model engineer and author of wide experience, including editorship of the magazine Model Engineers' Workshop, Bray offers detailed drawings for the construction of simple and advanced steam engines, boilers, and ancillary equipment. Many types of engines--from simple oscillating cylinder to piston and poppet valve--along with the application of radio control to the management of the boiler and engine are covered. Given the huge growth in interest in live steam powered model boats in recent years and the lack of practical details available, the plans and information included in this book will be welcomed by modelers everywhere.

Download or read book Building a Miniature Navy Board Model written by Philip Reed and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phillip Reed's latest building guide tackles what many regard as the ultimate expression of the ship model maker’s art, the Navy Board model. His step-by-step construction of a miniature 1/192 scale model of the Royal George of 1715 demonstrates all the conventions of Navy Board framing and planking. With the aid of nearly 400 photographs, he takes the reader through every building stage. Methods of hull and deck framing, internal and external planking, and the construction of the complex stern are all covered. Reed also shows how to render the multitude of decorative carvings on the figurehead, stern, and broadside. This is the first book in many years to cover the well-known and sought-after early eighteenth-century Navy Board models. The author takes the reader through every stage of the work with the aid of nearly 400 photographs. Methods of hull and deck framing, internal and external planking, the construction of the complex stern with its array of galleries, doors and windows, are all covered; and the rendering of the multitude of decorative carvings on the figurehead, stern and broadside is also demonstrated. A section showing, amongst others, his model of the siren, explains how the techniques used to frame Royal George can be adapted for ships of a later date, using single and double frames closer to full-size practice. Here is an invaluable manual from which any model maker can benefit from the lifetime’s experience of one of the world’s leading exponents of the art of miniature shipbuilding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In model shipbuilding, (almost) nothing is impossible. Almost everything that has ever sailed the waters can also be built as a model – sometimes only with greater effort. Günther Slansky is a model builder who is particularly enthusiastic about the diversity of the hobby. In his more than fifty-year modelling career, he has built everything he liked, from submarines to pontoons and from tugs to tall ships. In this book, he lets you participate in the building of these models and gives tips on how to master special challenges for each individual model. At the same time, the book is also a kaleidoscope of the diversity and history of model shipbuilding - its changes and developments over time.
