Trade items, anyone interested?
Posted by JigSawMan on Tuesday, January 8, 2008 3:31 PM

Hi All,

I have two books I am looking to trade for something.  What might you ask?  Well I do not know.  Check out the books and if you're interested, post something you have for trade.  If I find your trade interesting, then you have a deal.  The books are:

  1. Planking Techniques for Model Ship Builders (Brand new and full of great info, illustrations and pictures)
  2. How to build First-Rate Ship Models from Kits (Also brand new and full of great information, illustrations and pictures)

These books are duplicates in my library, which is why I am willing to let them go.  Anyone interested?

You may want to check with the FSM staff for details, but I believe that buy/sell/trade is against the forum rules

Oh, I was unaware.  If any moderators out there believe this to be true, then by all means wipe this post.  If not, I'll let it stand.

Its modelling related, will help other modelers, is beneficial for both parties and your not selling anything.

I dont see the big deal.

But maybe the glue fumes have gotten to me. Dead [xx(]

5. Advertisements. If you would like to advertise a product that your commercial company manufactures, or if you are an individual private seller, you can buy a classified ad in the magazine or an ad on the Web site. This includes all buying, selling, and trading. Any posts that appear to be an advertisement or transaction will be deleted.

This from the forum rules, though they are kinda vague. I think maybe they should have a separate forum especially for trading. I'm not sure if the rule above is towards commercial sellers only or what. Anyways, i was curious about trading rules too so I searched for this, I'm not trying to enforce anything. See what you can make of it. I'm afraid I personally don't have anything to trade, sorry. My kit stash is about one kit large right now, lol.

 Thanks, but I'll let it stand.  I gave the moderators an open invitation to delete it if they find it is not what they want on the forums and choose to.

Is the planking book regarding wooden kit builds or for scratch builders?

I have the San Mataeo kit, it's a wooden ship with pages of instructions.

It will be my first wood kit build so any info would be handy

It covers solid hull, plank of frame and scratch building.  That's why I purchased it the first and most likely why I purchased it a second time (without knowing I already had it) I find it very useful.
