    I believe VATERLAND came to the US just prior to WW1. At the outbreak of war she was interned by the US government, and kept at a Hoboken, NJ pier for approx. 3 years. She was kept by the US govenment and used as a troop ship toward the end of the war, and re-named LEVIATHAN, at the...

    The rigging is done with tungsten steel wire, .009 diameter. I figure when trying to simulate wire, what better to use than real wire, right? I buy my wire from www.smallparts.com Tungsten comes in 30 & 60 inch lenghts, to the tune of about $2.25 a piece for the 30 inch variety. It can be...

    Gotha!

    I've never ventured outside of ship kits~ I've ONLY built ships to date. Truthfully, it's for the want of an interesting subject- this is just what I'd consider doing! Now, for someone that has never built an aircraft, how would you rate this in terms of difficulty? And also, will you...

    Looking for JSC 1:400 suggestions

    Thanks for weighing in, guys! FYI, I did take the JSC plunge again- with the Edmund Fitzgerald kit. The kit looks to be less complicated than many of the other in the JSC line, so I thought that it may be a good reintro for me. I've also ordered Schreiber's 1:400 Titanic and Niew...
