Building the model ship HMS President 1760 - from a kit by Sergal Mantua.

[@adamscowcroft2919]

I am about to start this exact kit tonight. My grandad passed away about 10 years ago and left behind a shed full of model ships, planes, trains trucks & cars so I would really like to complete this and put it in my office in memory of him. I finally have the time to put towards this now that my kids are getting a bit older & I am so excited to get started on my first ever proper ship build. Thank you for sharing your video!

Well done ! Beautiful model !

Thanks for sharing the pictures during your build. I'm working on this as my first ship model and there's a lot of detail in the plans but for someone new to ship building it's still really confusing. Your pictures help a lot.

Full set of photos here. photos.app.goo.gl/7H8NbNEWbQi4y2qj9 Hope they are helpful. The President makes a lovely model.

@@calros3 This is great! Very helpful. I see you only put 6 of the guns on it. Is that because the rigging overlaps on the plans?

[@PiperStart]

It’s a marvelous model. Well done.

Beautiful 😊👍

Thanks for an excellent overview Ron, great job. Love the union jack! If im correct the actual ship was a French design, built by the American navy but captured by the British!

I want to build one of these but doubt i could produce something as good as that.

[@Sciguy95]

Never know until you try.

Lovely video, I was walking around the Victory last week with my son and looked at a Mary Rose kit in the shop £300 though and would love to make one you can,

У меня есть такой. Построил его 10 лет назад. Но ваш выглядит немножко игрушечно, как из сувенирной лавки. Ну и паруса свернуты, мягко говоря, как мешок от картошки.

How long did it take you to build? Very well done.

Beautiful ship. Only rolled sails looks unrealistic.

[@GW-jw9vs]

They just need to be rolled a little tighter i tging and maybe thinner material.

I am struggling with the planking, glue does not seam to hold very well any ideas please would be so helpful , this is my first model .

[@Sciguy95]

What kind of glue are you using? Its a good idea to use wood glue and hold it in place with pins while it dries. He also has a couple of other model ship videos where he talks about the different glues he has tried and what he prefers to use.
