| Here's a handy little set for 700 scale modelers. US Carrier Floatation Baskets a common site all over the sides of any mid to late war carrier. These baskets were filled with floatation devices to help keep sailors afloat if the ship sinks underneath them. In 1/700 scale there is just no good way to represent these parts. Tom's new set will go a long way to remedy that. | |

| INSTRUCTIONS AND CLOSE UP | |
| This set contains 60 Relief etched baskets. The relief
etching helps bring out the framework on the baskets and it is very well
done for this small scale. The baskets are designed in the typical style
for a part like this. The body is rolled around a rod and the ends are
folded in.
The instructions describe this and a tool you can make to make the whole process much easier. |
