The story of The Spyglass Shop Model Ship Builders
At The Spyglass Shop, we take great pride in the meticulous process of building our handcrafted model ships. With over 20 steps involving various departments and skilled model ship builders, the creation of each model ship is a labor of love that spans hundreds of hours. Our craftsmen approach each step with unwavering concentration, meticulousness, and an impeccable attention to detail. The result is a masterpiece that will captivate your senses, especially our Model Tall Ship Collection.
Our model ships and model boats are available as museum-quality, fully assembled masterpieces. We are particularly proud of our "Exclusive Edition" models, which feature a unique serial number etched into the hull. This special identifier allows us to trace the production date, materials used, and other relevant information for each model.
Our master craftsmen undertake the creation of these highly detailed wooden models with utmost precision. Using historical photographs, drawings, or original plans as references, they painstakingly handcraft each model from scratch. The models are built to scale using high-grade woods such as western red cedar, rosewood, and mahogany. Employing the plank-on-frame construction method, our craftsmen ensure that every model resembles the construction process of actual ships. Each model undergoes hundreds of hours of dedicated work and must pass a rigorous quality control process before leaving our workshop.
