Thanks to all our kit customers for their patience. We have been able to resume Kit production for 3 of our most popular kits. We can still do all the hulls.
A note about pricing on kits and hulls. If you order 2 or more of a kit or hull, please subtract $1.00 from the price on each extra kit or hull, since we will only be sending 1 set of instructions. (If you have previously ordered that same kit or hull, and still have the instructions, let us know we can leave the out the instructions and take $1.00 off the price.)

Hull Only Kits come
with the accurate vaccuformed hulls in white styrene, and the in-depth
drawings and assembly instructions. These are for modelers who prefer
to work from scratch and have their own supplies. Also, some kits
which have been discontinued due to parts availability are still available
in this way to those modelers who want them.
We feel the quality of our models will allow them to stand alone, or to be incorporated into a larger model or diorama. The diorama modeler will also find that the accuracy of our models in 1/96 scale will coincide nicely with HO scale (1/87) items.
Scale Notes:
1:96 scale is 1/8" = one foot note:
this is also sometimes called 1/8" scale.
1:192 scale is 1/16" = one foot note:
this is also sometimes called 1/16" scale.
Any 12" 1:96 scale
part could be used as a 24" scale part in 1:192 scale.
Example: F9604,
20" hawser reel in 1:96 scale, could be used as a 40" hawser reel in
1:192 scale.
