Miniature Maker
I read with great interest Dennis Flynn's article on Mr. Davis Arscott's lifelong hobby in miniature boat building in the May issue of Downhome magazine. My twelve-year-old grandson, Charles Campbell, is on a similar track. It all started with him building miniature furniture for his sisters' Barbie house. And because of his interest in history, notably naval ships, he began building famous ships from throughout history. His collection includes the Charles W Morgan, the USS Constitution and the Santa Maria. This is Charles with the Charles W Morgan he built. The sails are remnants of his cloth diapers soaked in tea to age them. Norma Jeane Davis Peterborough, Ontario Submitted By: NULL
