Hi I am looking for paddle wheel kits or plans. Does anyone use photo etch for making metal wheels? Thanks Rob

Float a Boat has an extensive range of paddle wheel kits made in plastic. They don't have them listed on their website but they're shown in their newsletters, or asked them.

Clyde Model Boats used to make brass kits. I'm not sure if they're still going. Talisman on this forum was behind it you could ask him.

There were some German, I think, kits made in brass. I don't have the link for them any more. But sit down when you look at the price.

What boat were you making?

Found the German link. Kits start at 695 euros.
