Wooden Model Ship Kits
  • There are various types of model boats. They
    range from the ancient Mediterranean to the
    present day boats. The ancient boat models are
    from Greece, Egypt and Phoenicia. These were all
    sea faring nations and their ships and boats were
    considered of high quality.
  • It was their adventurous spirit that made them
    build boats and ships and sail forth on high seas
    to discover what lay beyond their shores. But
    what happened to the people who did not sail the
    high seas?
  • They were equally interested in sailing but they
    never did get a chance to get on a boat or ship.
    So began the craft of making models of the ships
    and boats with Wooden model ship kits. These
    ancient models of ships and boats were made from
    many materials - wood, bronze, lead and clay,
    depending on how they were to be used.

  • They were used as burial votives, household
    articles, art and also as toys. These models were
    normally scaled down versions of small craft,
    merchant vessels and warships. There is also
    proof that some of the models were fishing
    vessels. Wood was most often the preferred
    material to make these models of ships and boats
    as it was easier to handcraft and replicate, the
    original itself being made of wood.
  • Once you have got the kit in hand you will need
    to find out what you have in the kit. So open the
    kit and check out all the things in there. Make
    sure that the pieces in the kit and the pieces
    mentioned on the list all match up. Sometimes a
    few pieces can go missing and that could take the
    fun out of building. The process of checking the
    pieces also ensures that you get to know the
    parts of the model boat or model ship and when
    you begin to read the instructions and how to go
    about making the model boat or model ship it will
    be an easy enough affair.

  • The instructions on the wooden model ship kits
    are very simple. Methodically follow the
    instructions. Do not try to jump steps or be
    hasty. Be organized. Arrange your pieces neatly
    on a table so that you can see what you are
    working with. Most of the pieces have already
    been already cut and shaped. All you need to do
    is to fix it appropriately as per the
    instructions without having to spend time trying
    to figure out where which piece has to be fixed.
    So it is a rather a simple process.
