Tiny Life boats

I have some 1/87th scale rubber rafts made by Roco Mini-Tanks. They are a little long since I think they are 8 man rafts, but by cutting a section out of the middle with a razor saw and glueing them back together, they would look OK for 1/72 scale 2 man rafts. Outside of that, get out the epoxy-putty and roll out a pencil sized log of it, bend to shape, connect the ends and build a floor out of sheet styrene. Add of straps of sheet lead and a rope around the circumference, oars and you're good to go.

P.S.: Welcome to the Asylum!

You might be able to find some here www.tracks-n-troops.com in the accessories page

Bobhead,
I have a bunch of (1/87, HO scale) life boats that came off of an old USS Constitution model. Send me an address and you can have them all. There are 7 different boats in varying sizes with internal seats and oars.

Thanks guys . . . I'm in Australia so it may be a bit hard to send things to me. I've been able to make a generic barge out of phone cards and styrene sheet as well as some parts of some boat models. Dirtied it up real nice.
