⛵ Build history, craft legacy.
The GAWEGM Ship Model Kit offers a laser-cut wooden replica of the ancient Chinese Green Eyebrows sailboat at a precise 1:148 scale, measuring 22x8x20cm when finished. Ideal for hobbyists and collectors seeking a detailed, culturally rich model to assemble and display.

Nice little junk
I've built a fair number of these wood scale boats and for the <$20 group, this GAWEGM model is as good as any. This kit included extras like metal anchors and chain and two little wood barrels that I got a kick out of. The laser cut pieces fit well and I experimented with various wood stains for contrast and a little aging effect. Turned out OK I think. On the caution side, this is a very small boat with corresponding fragile pieces and difficulty. It just goes with the territory. So, NOT for a child, or even an adult for that matter, without some dexterity and experience. The instructions are a bit cryptic and in Chinese which is not untypical. But my only real gripe is a page where the sails and masts appear to be presented as full size templates. This is not the case. I almost doubled the size of the sails and cut the masts accordingly to get it close to the photo and final drawing. Still, all in all, good build.

It's all there, but you have to translate the instructions from Chinese.
It's your typical model wooden ship.. everything is there... Good quality Lazer cut wood... Very nice little model (It's not very big but the quality is good)

All directions are in Chinese
Not the best made model. Very thin fragile parts.

Missing Parts/ Problem Solved
Small & inexpensive, but missing parts.Also requires some knowledge and skill for bending wooden parts. This is not one for most younger children. (some small wood bending is needed)Update: These folks are alright, I received an almost immediate response to my comments and they seem to actually care.I have upgraded their star status. I will probably buy more of their products because the model itself is good and the service is quick.

Good kit for the price
Sails diagram is not 1:1. Make them twice bigger and use a thicker line 0.15 at least. I’m very happy with the final look.

It’s impossible to build
The model was shipped from China with only Chinese instructions. Even with a Chinese interpreter, the model is difficult to build. DO NOT purchase.
