What skill level would be required to rig this thing well? And also, I have no experience rigging, can i still manage with good job?

Purchased last Christmas for a 9 year old. He painted and put it together by himself. He loved it. I think that was his favorite gift.

This is a high quality plastic model with many pieces. The instructions are very clear. Painting is required, and the recommended paints will cost somewhat more than the model itself. An adult with interest and patience can paint and assemble this to create an excellent product in approximately 100 fun-filled hours of hobbying.

I bought it for a 10 year old. Lots of gluing and small pieces. Lots of work.

Well skill level in terms of the rigging is all relevent, The rigging is not too complex...but it is not easy either. it has some hard parts. if you have no experience rigging, and want to do a good job on your titanic, i would look at getting a cheep model ($30) or so of one of the old tall sailing ships, one that has rope that needs to be stringed (http://www.amazon.com/Revell-RVLS5408-H-M-S-Victory/dp/B0002HZ37G/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid;=1385268360&sr;=8-11&keywords;=ship+models). if you can rig this one you should be ok for rigging the titanic.

Hi Rigoberto: You can pretty much jerry-rig this to anything that has some amount of weight to it. Like perhaps affixing it to a table leg with some weight behind it. You'll pull about maybe 25 lb.s of force onto it. . .it affixes in a couple of places.

I think if you have 1 or 2 friends help you hopefully 1 of you is mechanically skilled have some good tools is the tech mechanic or machinist would help and you can take it apart pretty easy leave it in big chunks put it in to pick up an of you go I know because they did it personally I think it's harder to setup the first time so it's quite move all

I would recommend having someone to assist you. There are some parts that needs a second pair of hands to keep them in place while you are inserting screws

Not too hard. Just give yourself a big area where you can separate all the parts then follow the directions. Took me about 2 hours and I am pretty handy.

Yes, I suppose you could certainly rig something up by attaching a piece of tarp or sidewall to the frame. It would be simple to do.

You could rig something up pretty easily. It doesn't come with a clip to do it though.

I could not tell you with 100% certainty. Could it be rigged up? Maybe. I am not tech. Bear in mind, this is the most basic (and most economical) model. I am sure they do have models operated remotely; thus, saving you the aggravation to modify it.

It's not that difficult. Instructions are clear. Try it yourself first. You can get anyone to assemble it if you struggle.

For this Hind in particular there is a part where you need to join the two halves, that's a tricky part. With no experience at all you will need extra time and patience, in the end is not rocket science. But of course, if you can afford some extra time and money for a more easy model first (think in the Revell Apache) that will make things better.

I wouldn't suggest it. I suppose you could with some rigging. But you'd have some serious sagging Issues

Dear C Skormin: If you are mechanically inclined, can understand directions and have patience, you should be able to assemble this stand. My husband put it together in 2-1/2 hours, but he is a perfectionist and part of that time was spent unpacking and looking over each piece for damage, scratches, etc. (there wasn't any). So, I think you could do it, and I don't think your age has anything to do with it. If you do it right, it's a beautiful piece and I think you'll be very happy with it. Good luck!

I believe it comes with hooks to do so.If not than you can rig something yourself

Unless you are very strong, you will need help from at least one other person. I had to offload my saw to a pickup truck to get to my workshop. You will need help to assemble it.

If you are good with a wrench about an hour or less. It is pretty heavy but I am pretty strong so I assembled myself. Otherwise you will need some help.

Why sure...depends on if you can tie it down well enough. You might end up messing with it a lot.

It depends on how strong you are, lol. It is pretty heavy, so I personally wouldn't suggest it... And it will take an hour or two to assemble ;)
