From the simple to the sophisticated, this third volume of the successful Period Ship Handbook series looks at the making of ten model sailing ship projects. For modelers who are just beginning the transition from kits to scratch building or the highly skilled craftsman, the chapters provide detailed instructions on the various phases of exhibition-standard construction. Projects range in size from the HMS Bounty's Jolly Boat to the Bounty itself. Other ships in this volume include the great seventeenth-century Spanish warship San Felipe and the early twentieth-century American whaling ship Viola, as well as the Bellona, Unicorn, Portsmouth, See Ewer Elbe, Baltimore, and a section on the Victory. For those unsure of the sometimes daunting details of the craft, the author provides information on rigging terminology, modeling techniques, and step-by-step instructions in a fully illustrated large-format layout designed to bridge any knowledge gaps and encourage participation in this fascinating hobby.

In this revised edition of the Period Ship Handbook, the best of the original has been retained: a well-illustrated guide to the construction of static model sailing ships and the offer to the beginner of all the information needed to get started in this fascinating hobby. It also continues to introduce the more experienced model-maker to alternative techniques, well tried over many years of model shipbuilding. Significant additions have been made to the original text as a result of a further twelve years of model-making experience and developments within the kit producing trade and the availability of new subjects. Following chapters on kit selection, tools and material, the emphasis of the book moves to the practical application of the model-making procedures involved in producing high quality models. The new models selected to demonstrate these techniques range form the relatively simple to the very complex but all are constructed from kits currently available, without the facility of a sophisticated workshop. Whether you are a beginner or an old hand, whether you fancy the graceful lines of a "J" Class yacht or the intricate detail and historical accuracy of HMS Victory, there is something here for you. Featuring nine brand new model projects: - HMS Victory - Victory's Launch - The Lady Nelson - HMS Mars - Yacht Endeavour - HMS Agamemnon - HMS Cruiser - Barque Endeavour - Clara May -

New Period Ship Handbook

Generously illustrated and fully detailed, this new manual from expert modeler Keith Julier provides a practical guide for craftsmen who want to build their historic models from a kit. From the initial planning and kit selection through the various stages of construction, Julier takes the myth and mystery out of what many consider to be a complex subject, using easy-to-follow explanations, simple terminology, and more than one-hundred photographs to help modelers complete their projects. Some of the many topics covered include: adhesives, finishes, and fixings; tools, maintenance and safety; history and accuracy; hull planking; wales and rails; stern and quarter galleries; sails; yards and spars; standard running and rigging; kit manufacturers and available products; and much more. Pointing out the pitfalls of modeling and how to avoid them, Julier's latest guide will be of particular interest to beginning and intermediate modelers, but more experienced hands will also find much of value.
