I started carving ships after my retirement and found this site while looking for information on the 1st Essex, ( I served on the USS Essex CVS9). The drawings you show have Item numbers, do they have a corresponding "Bill of Material"? Are they drawn to a scale or do they have dimensions? I would be interested in buying a set if that is possible? If you cannot help me, do you know of a place that that sells scaled drawings of "Period Ships"?

Hello,
I started carving ships after my retirement and found this site while looking for information on the 1st Essex, ( I served on the USS Essex CVS9). The drawings you show have Item numbers, do they have a corresponding "Bill of Material"? Are they drawn to a scale or do they have dimensions? I would be interested in buying a set if that is possible? If you cannot help me, do you know of a place that that sells scaled drawings of "Period Ships"?
Thank you,
