Lauck Street Shipyard, owned by Bob Hunt, produced about 40 kits of an Armed Virginia Sloop plank-on-frame model. Bearing the fictional name Patrick Henry, this unique and amazing 1:32 scale model is quite rare in the community.
This kit comes with quality materials and excellent packaging.
the strip wood is organized by build topic versus type/size. This will make the build go much easier. There are 11 sheets of CNC cut parts, 22 individually labeled packages of strip wood, and a box of excellent 3D printed parts. To my knowledge, this might be the first kit to include 3D printed parts. There is also a special building jig and a display base. The CD's are packed full of documentation and build photos.
5 sheets of full sized plans and parts identifiers rounds out a box that weighsin at over 17 pounds.
In recent days I have consulted with experienced and knowledgeable friends from our site , and came to the conclusion that an Appropriate amount would be $ 1200 (excluding shipping).
So dear friends, if you're interested in a very high quality and unique model and the price is right for you, I will be happy to sell it to you (Through PayPal).

the shipping will be from Israel, In an initial and non-concrete check I did with the postal service in our country, the costs to the European area are about $ 80 and to America about $ 110.
Of course when there is a concrete buyer I will check specifically in front of his address.
I am attaching some pictures of the model parts from the box as well as pictures that other friend that built this impressed beautiful modelParts5.jpgParts4.jpgParts3.jpgParts2.jpgParts1.jpgFinal1c.jpgfinal2.jpgfinal4.jpgfinal10.jpg.
 
I have one of Bobs early kits of another ship, they are all outstanding quality wood, plans and instructions.

Just wish I had funds to but another like this one.
 
Dear Friends
I understand that in order to promote the sale of this quality and rare model, I need to be flexible in pricing and therefore I am willing to sell it for $ 1111, so I am actually saving the shipping cost almost completely.
I hope this will help in sales promotion :)
 
Dear Friends
sale offer : 1000$ or 900 Euro, excluding shipping
For those who have a little bit of patience, I will arrive in the last week of May for a vacation in New York and from there I continue to Germany, so whoever wants I can bring the kit with me to the US or Germany and ship from there to the buyer thus significantly reducing the shipping cost.

Oleg: As far as I know, there are only 3 of these kits completed as models (I could be wrong, but I've never seen any others): Bob Hunt's prototype, and completed kits by Mike Shanks and myself. I'm happy to help with any questions when you start the model. Have fun! It was a great journey!
