I finished the float...
I haven't dreamed : many pieces doesn't fit !!!
I think that the painter had drink to much sake while doing this model. I haven't a better explanation...

Has you can see, I cut the the sail. I didn't understand how to manage the lower part...
I place the "paws" where I think they must be...
I had some small paper roll for wheel axes (it looks better like that).

Nice model, but...

Many thanks for the other links John !

Looks good, but doesn't the piece under the bow sit on top of the mast?

I meant this piece. I believe it goes at the top of the mast.

I hope the attachments work. In the diagram, it looks to me that this round piece goes on top.

I think you are right Vermin King !
I "saw" a claw in this piece, even if it was not on the small picture and if there was something at the top of the mast (there so many problem on this sheet... I thought that it was just one more...). But I was wrong.

Thanks for this useful analyse and your eagle eye ! ;-)

Considering how this was 'designed' you did a very good job with it. I read somewhere that these were sometimes done as wrapping paper. When the gift is unwrapped, you give the kids the paper so they have something to do to keep them busy. This may be one of them. I'm still not sure what that is supposed to be under the sail on the 'template'. I don't see it in your build.
