Wood Cutaway Model of USS Arizona (BB-39)
Framed Size: 19½" x 8-1/2"
Made in the U.S.A., each cutaway is an accurate, three dimensional, architectural model. The pieces are multi-layer, micro-cut, wood cutaway constructions, reflecting the utmost in detail and attention to accuracy.
Original blueprints and period photographs along with hand measurements, if possible, are used for the creation of each design. Approximately two months is then devoted to drawing the original multi-layer template for each item.
Original construction blueprints, photographs, deck plans, books and even advertising brochures are used to guarantee the accuracy of each cutaway. Approximately two months is then devoted to drawing the original multi-layer template for each item. Once the design work is complete, a computer-controlled laser is then used to cut and mark specially selected layers of basswood. After a layer has been cut, it is cleaned and carefully mounted to a baltic blue matte board. A total of six layers of basswood are hand assembled for each cutaway. When the cutaway is complete, it is then sealed behind glass in a cherry finish hardwood frame.
The highest level of quality in both work and materials is maintained to ensure museum quality cutaways. This integrity in both design and modeling skill has brought endorsements by many of the nation's museums, historical societies and memorial associations.
We can also customize this cutaway as any ship of the class for no additional charge. The design will remain the same as pictured but, will carry your desired hull number and nameplate.
The Arizona was the most heavily damaged of all the vessels in Battleship row. This cutaway depicts the Arizona as she was on the morning of Dec. 7, 1941. Many years of research and development and our cutaway is truly the first modern day look within this famous ship.
The USS Arizona is the final resting place for many of the ship's 1,177 crewman who lost their lives on December 7, 1941. As oil droplets bubble to the surface, the Arizona continues to serve as a symbol of America's loss and resolve.
