A tutti gli "scatolari" . . .

Girovagando su internet mi sono imbattuto in un sito che non conoscevo e che produce scatole di montaggio

a) di navi
b) di casette
c) alcuni accessori

Secondo me è da tenere d'occhio . . il sito è in lingua inglese e cecoslovacca. L'azienza ha sede nella Repubblica Ceka e si chiama DUSEK Ship Kits.

"Welcome to our new websites. We are a family-owned business focused on the design and manufacture of high quality wooden ship and architecture kits. The business was started in 2007 with only one kit - Greek Bireme and now we offer our customers more than 20 different kits. We hope the number of kits will grow also in the future as we bring more and more interesting and challenging models. During 2014 year we moved our production into new bigger space placed in industrial estate in Vsetin."

Bireme greca - 6° Secolo A.C. - Scala 1:72

"The model represents the Greek bireme from the 6th Century before Christ. The garrison force was created by 50 oarsmen, who were sitting in two rows one above another (on each side 25) and by about another 10 soldiers. In the event of struggle the oarsmen left the oars and skulls and fought with the shields and swords. The protrusion on the forward of the ship served for sinking of the enemy ships, the boat strove to crash by that into the hull of the adversary boat. The ship was handled by two rudders on the stern. The main drive of the ship was oared, the sail served only for longer lasting voyages. During the battle the sail together with the mast were down swept on stern and the ship was driven entirely by oars."

"Nuestra Señora de la Concepción y de las Ánimas was the first Spanish three decker. Construction of the ship was begun in 1682 by the master builder Antonio de Amas and she was launched in 1687 at the Colindres shipyard in Cantabria. She had a displacement of about 1500 tons. There are two sources for reconstruction of the ship; first is the book “Arte de Fabrica Reales” from 1691 which contains some drawings, and second is a painting in the parish church “Iglesia de la Asunción” in Arcenillas, Zamora."
