Was given as a gift and the recipient has enjoyed building it.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful historic ship models with high quality design and materials. My one complaint is that the instructions can be too brief and obscure. For instance, in the Chinese Junk model, there was no indication on how to affix the sail battens to the sails. By improvisation, I used needle and thread plus lots of glue. Clearer instruction would help.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Purchased one of the expert build models. Have been working on it in spare time for about 6 months. The hull is almost complete. The material is spot on with specs, Quality material, laser cut and accurate. Definitely an expert project but well worth it and the time.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The model was as advertised, and was received with other tools ordered at the same time. Very happy with all the products & the service.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great model and really good to buildTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm 7 months into building a FIFIE and have a few weeks to go. instructions are mostly clear and drawings are accurate. I think I would like to add a motor but failed in the contact to enable it. It's me ,.I know. ! The buying experience and model parts are excellent although I've had to adapt some to make the model both look better and fit better. I'll buy another model boat later this year.
