Obama "White" House

I'm actually a Obama supporter but would like to make this papercraft for a friend of mine.

Looks like an easy assembly.

Old Ironsides needs a new home

I am selling one of my favorite things. I bought this display model of the USS Constitution a few years ago(with much protest from my wife). The best word I can use for it is impressive. It measures over 58" fore to aft and stands at just under 42" tall. As model ships go, this is a big one. Built by hand using plank on frame construction. This is a museum quality piece.














I have listed it on craigslist and have put this blog entry up to show some additional pictures. If you are interested in purchasing it, I am asking $425.00 or a reasonable offer.



















Link to a similar model from the same company, that is currently for sale on their site for $1299.00. It is the 40" length model. THIS ONE IS 58"LONG! They no longer offer any models at this size due to the extreme cost and difficulty in shipping. My shipping was nearly what I am asking for this model, as it required door to door hand delivery in a custom built crate.



I think most individuals prefer something more manageable. This model is ideally more suitable for a museum or school. I just gave it a careful but thorough dusting and replaced some of the rigging that was beginning to fray. Overall I would say it is in very good condition.

Feel free to call me at 314-775-6361 any time to arrange to see it. Please be serious about purchasing it if you call. Local Pick up only. GO NAVY!!

I want to build this

I've been wanting to build a custom wall clock for a while and this one looks promising. Check out their site. They are Share Brained Technology. They call this one the Chronulator.

A new reason to buy more beer
