Steamship Armenia

As you requested, here are the particulars on the model "Armenia" I am attempting. The plans were purchased from Taubman Plan Service in NJ. They consist of 4 sheets which show most aspects of the ship. They are labeled 1/8" = 1' but after some confusion regarding what is shown and the dimensions that are printed on the drawings, I realized that the scale is actually closed to 1/4" = 1'. No matter though, I had decided to build the model to the size of the drawings to make things easier and bigger. I have made the hull of solid wood by sandwiching layers of 3/4" poplar using the buttoch line approach. I will attempt to put photos up on the Paddleducks web site.
