    Trident Model - New Kit HMS Alert - List of members which are interested to buy the kit

    Hey guys, looks like everyone can move up a spot. I have to respectfully ask that my name be removed. The Alert is a beautiful model but I have convinced myself that I want to build a certain 32 gun frigate. Thanks again Trident for making this available. Perhaps when shipping etc gets back to...

    Thank you Uwe for your presentation. Trident, I think you have created a small masterpiece in design and quality of workmanship that will be your trademark. Looks like all the others will have new heights to strive towards. Wonderful!

    Just gotta love Princess Auto :) I couldn't believe it the first time I ever went into one of their stores. Ontario is looking beautiful already!

    Hello from Toronto, Canada.

    Welcome to SOS! God I miss Toronto! I made the mistake of leaving 12 years ago and and still feel the call :) Anyways, we seem to be quite the diverse group from all over the planet with the same passion for ships and modeling. Glad to meet you!

    Unboxing HMS ALERT - Unboxing the Test Kit

    What an astounding level of detailed items so far! Making the assembly jigs might even proof the model against my occasional bouts of idiocy :) Thanks for showing us Uwek and thanks Trident for taking us all along

    need to find wood for my model.

    Jim, did you ever re-source the black hornbeam? You've gotten me looking as I want to get a bit for when I get my hands on Trident's Alert. I noticed a lot of companies are making fairly nice long blanks for billiard cues. Just wondering how to go about getting it from the Ukraine or Russia

    Black Pearl model

    Hi everyone Yesterday I was online looking to find a window A/C unit on the Canuck Walmart site. For fun did a search for wooden ship models. Lo and behold! A 32 inch Black Pearl that looks oddly familiar (originally $366.39) for $183.19 Can. That's $132 US greenbacks. If it's what it looks...

    Mysterious 19th-century shipwreck found

    Thanks Jim! That was interesting to say the least. Did they say at what depth it was at? I was so busy watching the footage I missed most of the written commentary. Pretty cool seeing how the copper kept it almost intact below the water line.

    Trident Model - New Kit HMS Alert 1777 1:48 Plank on frame by Trident Models

    If this doesn't get released soon my wife will come up with more uses for me and the money! The Alert as you have designed it is spectacular. The 'gifts' will take this model to a level that will cause riots in the streets and feelings of jealousy from all those that chose 'not' to participate :)

    Saying a prayer and wishing you the best results! Feeling poisoned from not being able to take a good dump makes life almost unbearable. Like all things...it'll all work out :)

    Fresh out of the Hospital

    Joe, that's one heck of a beautiful collection you have created! Hammond must have really liked you! The thing with the Chinese mods (and most folks only see shiny, does everything but give birth and cheap) is that they give out in under a year and warranties are nearly non existant. I would...

    Fresh out of the Hospital

    Joe, I need you to talk to my crazy other half in regard to the vaping thing! I took on vaping 3 years ago and haven't looked back. (darn smokes still smell good when they are first lit though). This Christmas I got my son a nice mod and atomizer and he's taking to it really well. Vaping to me...

    Cooperation in the construction of models of sail ships.

    Unbelievably beautiful work! If I was younger, I would be asking what it would take, if it was possible, to receive a apprenticeship :) Should we meet in the next life or my life situation changes very dramatically, I will commission a piece. In the meantime I must satisfy myself knowing that...
