Thanks Steve
Thanks Footski and you are quite right
I've never ever fancied rigging a ship I think it's a skill in its own right. Hence the little stubbies

I loved the rigging side more than the build. Done well it really can be superb, but takes a long time.]

hi there
This is my attempt from Dodgy's site of free downloads. This is the Terrier M.T.B. er great fun to run round the lake. Sadly though the video isnt that clear. John one from Dodgy's vintage Keil kraft site |

.... Just what I needed, another project!😀 They are designed to be built by 12-year-olds on a bedside table, so really easy and quick to put together. Wood, but not far off plastic for simplicity - and very cheap! Look at the OSA Missile Boat for a different navy... |

After the holidays I’ve been trying to get back to this build. One part that I’ve started on is the top of the main mast where the 992Q radar is mounted. Once this part has been cleaned up and fitted, I can instal the radar motor and complete the mast lights.

On this side of the pond we can also do small torpedo boats! Here are a couple of Terriers (an EeZeBilt balsa kit from the late 1950s vaguely resembling a Vosper MTB). One is straight running, the other has been R/C'd with a closed loop thread link to the rudder. Dusty because I've just got them out of storage. At 10.75" they are about 1:80 scale - 1/72 figures fit them quite well.
Going up a bit in scale we have an Elco in the EeZeBilt 50+ range at 1:48 scale - (O gauge) 20" long. Static and running pictures below. Download free plans for all of these from http://eezebilt.tk |
