A recent posting to this group, which I've since deleted (sorry!), asked about
available kits for a liberty ship. I realise that this group seems to be
geared towards builders of plstic models, but I thought I'd pass along this
info anyway. Bluejacket Ship Crafters has a 1/16 scale kit of a liberty ship
available. This is a wooden kit with a solid pre-carved hull and it cal be
fitted for either wartime or peacetime operations. The length of the completed
model is 27-1/2" and the price was $180.00 a year ago... it may have increased
slightly since then. I don't have Nluejacket's catalog at hand but it is also
available from The Dromedary Ship Modeler's Center, 6324 Belton, El Paso, TX
79912. Their catalog costs $6.00, but it is THICK and lists many kits, plans,
fittings, supplies, tools, books, etc. Are there any other people out there
interested in wooden ship models?
