I worked for years for a lumber company that built full size models. If it
didn't work they just tore it out and built another one that would. One
time they were tearing it down on one end while we where still building on
the other. Funny thing is it seem to work .
IMHO It would be a real waste of time to build a model of something as
small as a baidarka.
