English Revenue Cutter
Cheerful 1806
Ten 12 pound Carronades (gunades) and two 6 pound long guns
A Plank on Bulkhead ship modeling project for the first time scratch builder. The Cheerful project is available in Alaskan Yellow Cedar or Boxwood. You can buy the Starter package which contains all of the bulkheads, keel parts and framework, including the full set of plans. Then you can choose to scratch build the rest of the project or buy the laser cut mini kits provided for the other various fittings. Its up to you. This is not a typical kit where all of the parts come in one box. You only have to buy what you want to and scratch build everything else.
The plans (1/4" scale) and accessories are available along with a monograph on how to build it. The monograph is available here as a download for free. A printed monograph is not available in order to try and keep costs for the project at a minimum. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Wood Strips and sheets can be bought at
