Can anyone give me information on where to purchase ship building parts? also im starting my first ship the HMS Campbeltown, can anyone give me building tips and a list of materials and building supplies? Thomas
http://www.modelwarshipcombat.com/links.shtml Links to all sorts of goodies. Are you building a wood hull or fiberglass? Are there any "local" people near you that can help? Do you want tips on anything in specific? Do you own a dremel?
Campbelltown is a very small ship in scale; I strongly recommend something bigger like a cruiser or battlecruiser. Not raining on the parade, just that destroyers are hard to build in scale due to space and weight limitations.
He's got a entry in the warship registry indicating he intends to build to Queens Own scale, 1/72. Didn't know anyone on the east coast was doing QO, but if he is, then its not so small.
it might get bigger than the selected scale, nut its gonna be wood, no im the only one in my region, Tips: is there a step by step guide for first timers, and yes i own a dremel
Most of the Ohio battling is with the Treaty Club. You can join the yahoo group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TreatyCombat/. As for your ship, you'll likely have to build it unless you can find one for sale. Battlersconnection.com and strikemodels.com sell most of what you need.
Thomas, I'd suggest finding the Bearn build thread in the Warship Builds subforum, and Tugboat's Cheapest Point of Entry (I think that was the thread title). Both are pretty good discussions on building a wood hull. John, please start your own thread in the Introductions subforum. Edit to add links: Bearn CV Thread: http://www.rcnavalcombat.com/Forum/...fault.aspx Tugboat's thread (I was wrong about the name): http://www.rcnavalcombat.com/Forum/...fault.aspx
