	A history of model ship building from ModelShipShop.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Ship models were being built by designers of large ships primarily to show their prospective customers how the full size ship would appear, and also to introduce advanced building techniques.
		Many of the older models from the turn of the century, 1900 on, were models built by seamen who whiled away their off-duty hours whittle models of ships they were serving on.
		People who work on building model ships often join together to form guilds; these guilds are intended to allow more experienced members the opportunity to pass on their knowledge to new members; to allow members of all levels of expertise to exchange new ideas, as well as serving as social function.

	American Marine Model Gallery
		Such models can sometimes be spotted simply because their appearance is too new or uniform to be authentic; however, the most important and effective way to identify a model's origins is to know the name of the marine model artist, guild or company who created it and whose methodology can be verified.
		A model of the Folk Art or Americana genre, generally built during the mid-to-late 19 th or early 20 th century, is typically made to create an impression, versus to convey historically accurate naval architecture or details of a particular vessel.
		Just as with the retail value of ship models, appraisal value is based on the reputation of the marine model artist, the nature or complexity of the original vessel, skill level or difficulty of the techniques and methods used in the hull construction, and the fame or notoriety of the vessel being replicated.

		It was only natural that I construct ship model kits as they didn’t take up too much room and I had access to all of the technical data that I needed to be accurate in my models.
		For many years I constructed models that I either, kept and later gave away to family members, or destroyed because I was not happy with the quality of the model.
		I have found that it is a challenge to take old models that have deteriorated over the years and restore to the original condition that the model builder intended for his project.

	Ship model - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It was a common aspect of the Egyptian funeral practice to include highly accurate and detailed, painted, sycamore wood models of a ship and crew, intended to transport the soul of the deceased to the afterlife.

	Shop Note: Caulking Ship Model Decks (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		In fitting deck planks on a ship model, as with nearly all other items, it is necessary to obtain a good, close and accurate installation.
		The technique is probably used by many modelers, but there may be some who are new to the ship modeling hobby and would like to know about an alternative.
		The caulking on most ships is quite thin, and when you scale down 1/2 inch or so it becomes 0.008 inch wide at 3/16" to l' scale (or half of 1/64").
