This large-scale (1:24) cutaway kit features plank-on-frame wood construction with cast Britannia metal fittings, laser-cut parts, resin castings, photo-etched parts, and bottom copper plates. The tryworks is built brick by brick using an inner shell with brick locations marked, and includes copper plates and a rivet-placement template; a unique building jig is included to aid construction. Finished model length of the cutaway is about 10 inches (254 mm); it is listed by retailers as an advanced-level build and the tryworks portion is also sold separately as its own kit.
