USS Constitution

Went to the model shop today to stock up on 0.8mm model wire and 1mm wire, after using most of what had for making masks with wire nose clips over the last 18 months !
They had none in stock, just as a quick query I asked them if they do wooden models specifically ships, was surprised that the answer was yes, as he did say that they had been been unable to get them from the supplier for quite a while but now they had some in stock, I asked the price thinking it could be 3 figures having looked on the net on occasions and was very surprised that the price was £23 , which is a lot less than some plastic molded models . 
 So I now have a new project to build when it's wet and miserable outside.
