My Ship Collection

Mike Bowen


To help survive long cold gray Michigan winters I enjoy building World War II navy ships from scrap wood in my garage. It sure beats watching endless hours of network TV. I've posted below a handful of pictures. If only I could find a way to make a living building these models.
The scale is the same for all ships... 1" = 15'-0". The carrier is 5' long, the battleship is just over 4' long and the destroyers are just over 2' long.
