Unlike full hull models, this structural section focuses on the midship area of the USS Constitution, revealing the massive timbering, multi level deck layouts, and internal storage that made this frigate a naval icon. The Perfect Introduction to Ship Modeling: Because it focuses on a smaller segment of the hull, this is an excellent kit for newcomers to the hobby.

The Mamoli MV32 provides a fascinating "X-ray" view into the legendary "Old Ironsides." Unlike full-hull models, this structural section focuses on the midship area of the USS Constitution, revealing the massive timbering, multi-level deck layouts, and internal storage that made this frigate a naval icon.

The Perfect Introduction to Ship Modeling: Because it focuses on a smaller segment of the hull, this is an excellent kit for newcomers to the hobby. It allows builders to master essential planking and rigging skills in a manageable format before committing to a full-length ship model. Furthermore, this kit is built to the exact same 1:93 scale as the full Mamoli USS Constitution, making it a perfect companion piece.

Kit Materials & Construction

This kit is engineered for a high-quality, tactile building experience:

Structural Integrity: The kit contains pre-formed ribs and a central frame, significantly reducing the complexity of the initial assembly.

Premium Double Planking: The hull is finished using a two-layer method for maximum durability and aesthetics—utilizing flexible beech for the first layer and rich walnut for the final exterior finish.

Internal Realism: Includes numerous accessories in both metal and wood to faithfully replicate the interior of the ship, from the cargo hold to the gun deck.

Refined Fittings: Features high-quality cast metal fittings for the ordnance and hardware, while the blocks, deadeyes, and rigging fittings are machined from solid walnut.

Note on Heritage & Wood Selection

While original Mamoli plans may reference European species, this modern edition produced by Dusek/Model Expo utilizes a combination of traditional hardwoods and high-quality Basswood for specific components. This ensures excellent workability and a consistent surface for those wishing to paint or stain the model to match the Constitution’s famous black-and-white "Nelson Chequer" appearance.

What’s in the Box?

All pre-formed ribs and laser-cut deck components.

Double-planking strips (Beech and Walnut).

Complete set of cast metal hardware and walnut rigging blocks.

Detailed multi-sheet plans and assembly instructions.

Note: Adhesives, tools, and paints are sold separately.


Why Build the Constitution Section?

Whether you are a seasoned builder looking for a unique vertical display or a beginner looking to "cut your teeth" on a professional-grade kit, the MV32 is a masterclass in naval architecture. It offers all the complexity of a flagship model—cannons, rigging, and timbering—concentrated into a stunning 26-inch tall display piece.


Recommended Add-ons

Model Shipways Paint Set: Specifically curated colors for "Old Ironsides" (Black, Hull White, and Copper).

Planking Screw Set: Great for beginners to hold the beech planks against the ribs while the glue sets.

Easily assembled.
Size: 3Pack of 5 Tier (Not included planks)
Easily assembled, seems sturdy and built to last. Once attached to wall seems even sturdier than expected. Anchor pieces included but I choose to find studs to anchor to.

Good but misleading size
Size: 3Pack of 5 Tier (Not included planks)
Sturdy set for shelving. However dimensions are misleading. Not sure if they sent the incorrect size but the vertical distance between shelves was 11” and that’s without the shelving installed
