A Nautical Build from Patrick Konkle

Here’s a really exceptional build of the Clyde Puffer Steam Boat.  Patrick obviously knows how to build and rig ship models.  If I didn’t know he started with our Clyde Puffer, I’d say that this was a high end wood model.  He did some stretching of the length and height of the hull and obviously went to amazing lengths with the added details.  This is a absolutely unbelievable build.  VERY IMPRESSIVE Partick.

Thanks so much for the compliments Dave , but if I hadn't had such a great kit to start with the finished product wouldn't have been near as good . As a nautical/railway modeler I highly recommend the Clyde Puffer a great well thought out kit.

I thought I saw reference to an instruction sheet for the Clyde Puffer, but cannot find it again. Would you please point me to it if it actually exists?
Thanks,
Rob

hi Rob
I don't have an instruction sheet , I just used the pics Dave has on the site and others I found on line of the real thing to do the build.

On page 04 of the kit Dave & Thom wrote "We will be putting the instructions up on our website shortly. <www.clevermodels.net>"
Did the instructions ever make it to the website? I cannot find them.
Thanks,
Rob

I see others have been looking for the instructions you were going to post on the website for the Clyde Puffer. Did this ever happen? I just purchased the kit and am also looking for the instructions. All the photos are great but I would love to read the instructions before tackling this build!
Thanks!
