Welcome to the Ships of Scale Website. I created this
website in hopes that it would be an asset to other modelers like myself.
When I started building my first wooden ship back many years ago, I did not have the guidance, nor
anyone to turn for help. The model was going to take a lot of patience and time to complete. Back then,
I was anxious to get it built not knowing that building ships can be a process of time, dedication, patience,
endurance.
Building ship models, expecially the wooden kind, is an art, and requires learning a new talent and even a new language
of the ships parts and components. The manuals, instruction, and plans are all written expecting the ship modeler to
already have some foundation knowledge of nautical terms.
Again, be paitent and willing to stay with your ship and complete it. The next one you build will bring even more satisfaction.
Yes, there will be mistakes and problems along the way, but this is all part of the artisanship of it all.
I put this site together for you, the new Ship Modeler to learn. This site will grow and develop as I add new content.
Just click on the image links below to carry you to the Build Logs.
