if we think for a moment vessel was clearly much larger than the surface of the mouth of the hole in the bottle. Many people think the bottom of the bottle is cut? Really? however our perception of the small boats made of wood, paper and thread screens.
The secret is that the hull is small enough to fit through the neck of the bottle, but the screen and spars (masts and supports the sail) which is collapsible and can be pulled into position using the thread controllers.
Wood for the hull and glass bottles should be selected according to the model and place the bottle will be placed or displayed on shelves or tables with ease, measurement of parts of the ship are controlled by the inner diameter of the bottle neck. Typically, wood is a hard wood such as spruce or pine, and should close - grained without flaws.
to supply other woods including bamboo skewers small diameter pen to spar, a popsicle stick that can be engraved deckhouses and lifeboats, the hull of timber suitable for display stand, and larger blocks of wood pieces for the working stand is raised.
