I have completed a "mini" scaled model of a container ship to be used with
Eric Harsbarger's Golden Gate Bridge
(http://ericharshbarger.org/lego/golden_gate_bridge.html ) that will be on
display at the Atlanta Festival of Trees next week.

The ship is about 3 feet in length and is 1.5 feet at it's hightest point.
The hull is made mostly of 2x4 bricks with a series of supports on the
inside. It is a pretty heavy ship.

Here are some pictures of it at my home. Later I will have some pictures of
it actually with the bridge display.

(...) Nice work! A very solid looking ship. The assorted colour containers are a nice touch. (...) I'll look forward to those. Any chance of getting some waterline level shots, to show how you've done the hull shaping? Cheers Richie (22 years ago, 3-Dec-02, to lugnet.boats)

(...) of the ship and the many different colours of containers. One small annoying detail; you don't stack containers like you stack LEGO bricks. Jacob (22 years ago, 3-Dec-02, to lugnet.boats)
