A desk-sized sailboat, built in one evening, with no glue or tools.
Our smallest boat: an old-time sailing ship in light plywood, with sails cut from fine wooden slats, fore and aft castles, engraved flags and an oval base. The parts pop out of the sheets and slot into one another, no glue needed.
A small wooden model ship kit you can build in one evening
You pop out the parts, gently curve the sails as shown in the instructions, then slot the hull frames in one by one. The wood stays natural, unpainted: a light, graphic piece, perfect on a desk, a bookshelf or a windowsill.
The same model comes in two sizes: the Small (56 pieces, 15 cm tall) and the Large (18 cm tall), which makes more of a statement on a shelf.
Who is it for? For a first try, for a small gift that's sure to please, or to round out a shelf that's already well stocked.
Dimensions once built: Small: 16.5 × 5 cm footprint, 15 cm tall. Large: 20 × 7.6 cm footprint, 18 cm tall.
What's in the Little Display Sailboat kit

- Laser-cut plywood sheets

Your questions about the Little Display Sailboat
Your questions about this kit
Small or Large—which one should I pick?
The Small fits anywhere, on a desk or in a bookshelf. The Large stands out more and suits a shelf of its own. The build is the same.
Is it suitable for a beginner?
Yes, it's our easiest boat. Our guide how to build a model kit gives you the right moves to get started.
Do I need to paint it?
No, it looks great as is in natural wood. A clear varnish is enough if you want to protect it.

Article conforme à la description. Je l'ai déjà assemblé et il est parfait.
Je l'ai essayé dès mon arrivée. J'ai concentré mon attention et travaillé calmement dessus, et avant de m'en rendre compte, c'était terminé. Je pense que ce serait bien de le faire de temps en temps.
J'ai vraiment hâte de l'assembler - j'avais déjà commandé cet ensemble auparavant et il est tellement beau et tellement agréable à assembler que je l'ai voulu à nouveau (pour offrir) ;o)) Livraison rapide, merci beaucoup, je serai ravi de commander à nouveau ! =o)
bonjour. correspond parfaitement à la description. bon rapport qualité prix. livraison rapide. je me suis regalé à monter ce bateau. tout est parfait. félicitations pour ce produit très intéressant et ludique.
Je l'ai assemblé sans réaliser que le temps passait.
Je pensais que c'était grand, mais c'est plus petit que la longueur de ma paume.
Quoi qu'il en soit, c'est mignon et joli lorsqu'ils sont placés ensemble.
superbe puzzle en bois véritable 🪵 facile à assembler, livré prédécoupé
C'était plus facile à assembler que je ne le pensais et amusant à réaliser.
