    Hi All,
    I had just finished my new scratch built ship model and wanted to post it on the forum. The scale of this ship is 1/96 so it would be 168' long x 42' wide, and draws 21' of water. The model is 27" long x 12" wide, and 25" high mid-ship. And has 5 different deck levels, plank-on-frame construction, made out of chestnut wood. Total work hours on the model, 1,175, and about 10,000 pieces. About 61' of rigging.
