Cradle decoration
I'm building a model of Endeavour for my son and was thinking that it might be nice to have something extra to go with it when it's completed. As I wasn't about to go diving off the Rhode Island coast to get a piece of the ship, I had to think of something else.
I found a company called dugup in the U.K. and bought four Navy uniform buttons from the period and mounted them on the ends of the cradle for the model. I was quite pleased with the result, and if they ever become really valuable, he should be able to pry them off without too much trouble. |

Re: Cradle decoration
I like it, great idea. I am building the Bluenose so I can use the Canadian 10 cent coin, it has the Bluenose on it. Thanks now the ideas are flowing
