Cracker Box quarter scale from BAE plans

(1/7) > >>

TomF:


It is many years since I last made a model boat. I have always liked the Riva style of boats, and after seeing one recently, rekindle my interest in model boats.
I wanted to make something a little different, with lots of scale detail, bling, and quarter scale (I have a quarter-scale car and motorbike). It also has to work and run well (read fast)!
After much research, I settled on the Cracker Box, which gives a lot of scope for customization since no two are made alike.



TomF:
Or this



SailorGreg:
Oh yes, this is going to be fun!  Quarter scale will give a huge model, and building will, I guess, have more in common with the full size boat than smaller models.  Looking forwards to this very much.  :-)) :-))

Lovely looking boats and certainly some work in them. Would like to see your bike and car.

I raced quarter scale cars for many years - nice size for an r/c speedboat too  :-))
