Sorry Kat...I've been working on this riverboat now for about six months and all I've finished is the hull and finally the engine room. Took three months before I was satisfied with the engine room and all. With this rate, it'll take about three years before I get this model finished. 
Reason for this long delay is that this model is pretty much a scratch model in that I have to not only design and draw up the plans, but I've got to cut the wood as well. If you can imagine cutting wood at about .5 millimeter thick and working with scale that small, you will be able to understand what I'm working with. However, saying all this, if there's anyone out there who can work with brass rod at .5 mm and shaping it, give me a call. I need to work something out for the railings around the riverboat.

My goodness! You sure took on a MAJOR project!
Anything available for the Mayflower, or even the CSS Alabama in terms of pics?
