Noah's Ark from Minicraft Models
Wednesday, April 30, 2008 at 11:01PM
Despite being arguably the best known ship in recorded history, there have been precious few models of Noah's Ark, never mind a quality injected styrene kit. Now, thanks to Minicraft Models, there is one. Produced to "cubit scale", the box states that the finished model is 1/350th actual size, given the finished model's length of over 18 1/2".
No one knows what the Ark actually looked like, but the split hull, interior detail and construction options incorporated in this kit makes it suitable for use as a teaching aid in children's Sunday School classes. Or, if you prefer, a very interesting conversation piece when displayed on your bookcase. Price? $79.95.

Go ahead and do the diorama. It'd make a great fantasy piece!
Incidentally, the first place I ever heard the notion of the dinosaurs surviving the flood was in a book of questions and answers about the bible. Written by a preacher, he actually created the questions so they could be answered the way he wanted them to be.
To make a long story short, the question was "How did the dinosaurs survive the flood?"
And the answer was "God had Noah take a pair of baby dinosaurs on the Ark and that's how the dinosaurs survived the flood."
After you've quit laughing hysterically - and assuming you want to know - drop me a line and I'll tell you why that statement is so riproaringly funny.
