Title: Model Shipwright
Post by: riggers24 on April 22, 2009, 05:13:47 pm

Does anyone regularly receive a copy of the model shipwright by conway maritime press, I am trying to find out what volume number had the plans in for the WW2 liberty ship.

Riggers, left this for awhile....but talk to the TMBC member who sails tiny little things around the lake (i.e."Ice Maiden"). He has a complete collection of MSs. BY.

Cheers Bryan, I just need the number so I can buy it. There is a seller on eBay who has got a collection that he is selling off

Beware of the excellent modeller called "Nemesis". Well named. He and Jack Strapp make a good "double act". You think I criticize? Wait until "Nemesis" finds his feet! I'll keep him in check though. But for most things "ship-modelling" you would be well advised to listen, even though his only "sea-going" experience was on the Tyne Ferry. Welcome aboard "Nemesis"! BY

Re liberty ship, the numbers are 112 & 114, they are for making a miniature & include a plan, so I am
led to believe.

Riggers,The Marine Modeller March issue 2005 has a Liberty Ship plan in it. The plan appears in the
latest plans handbook page 63

BY is dead right here, many a boat modeller has been reduced to a gibbering wreck after their pride and joy has been thoroughly scrutinised by THE NEMISIS  {-)
