Wooden ship kits
  • There can be as many models of wooden ships are
    there are ships at sea. For, it is rather simple
    to scale down a model of the original once you
    have figured out how you want to go about it.
    Ships at sea range from large war faring vessels
    to merchant vessels to cargo ships and luxury
    boats. So in reality and if you have the
    inclination to build model boats and ships then
    there is such a wide mind boggling number of
    ships out there that all you need to do is get
    down to choosing the one of your interest or the
    ship that would interest you the most.
  • Ships have been sailing the seas since the
    ancient times. The people of the Mediterranean
    region used ships and boats for transport and
    fishing. Ships and boats were also used in
    Greece, Egypt and Phoenica. So in all these sea
    faring nations you will find models of these
    ships and boats. Building models of ships and
    boats is as old as the shipping industry itself.
    Since the people of these regions depended to a
    large extent on these boats and ships for their
    daily bread, they were all of high quality and
    also beautifully crafted with Wooden ship kits.

  • But not only were they made of different
    materials they were also made in various sizes.
    The most commonly used material was wood. This is
    because wood is easy to mould and also to carve.
    The other materials used are bronze, lead and
    clay. But all this depended on how the model boat
    or ship was to be used. There were big ones that
    could have been used as burial votives and small
    ones that could be used as toys. Scaled to size
    they were exact replicas of the original.
  • There can also be models of fishing vessels,
    warships, merchant ships, luxury ships, pirate
    ships, schooners and almost everything that can
    possibly sail the seas. So the sizes of model
    ships and boats that are possible are immense.
    All you need to know is how to handcraft these
    boats with wooden ship kits and also how to
    replicate the original and what scale you want to
    make it in.

  • Some of the oldest models in Europe are those of
    galleys, galleons and carracks. There were models
    of Admiralty boats and these are in actuality
    models of proposed warships.
