Stop Fighting the Wood. Start Bending It to Your Will. If you’ve been building wooden ships for any length of time, you know the sound. It’s that sharp CRACK that happens just as you’re pinning a stubborn plank to the bow. It’s the sound of an hour of soaking and a premium piece of walnut going to waste.
The Model Shipways Master Shipwright’s Electric Plank Bender is the professional’s secret to perfect, permanent curves. By using targeted heat instead of massive amounts of water, you’re not just bending wood—you’re "setting" it. This tool allows you to achieve museum-quality results without the warping, waiting, or wood-snapping frustration.
Why This Belongs on Your Workbench:
- Heat-Set Precision: Unlike traditional soaking which leaves wood fibers "mushy," our heated iron relaxes the lignin in the wood. Once it cools, the curve is locked in permanently. No spring-back. No stress on your glue joints.
- The 5-Minute Miracle: Stop waiting 24 hours for wet planks to dry. Give your wood a quick dampening, apply the heat, and you’re ready to glue in minutes.
- Contoured Wooden Jig Included: Comes with a specialized wooden forming block. Whether you’re working on a sharp bow or a gentle stern rake, the jig gives you the perfect surface to "iron" your curves.
- Tailored for Model Woods: From soft basswood to the most stubborn mahogany and walnut, this bender provides the consistent temperature needed to tame any grain.
What’s in the Kit?
- 110V Electric Bending Iron: Features a comfortable wooden handle and a specially shaped "roll-tip" head.
- Wooden Shaping Jig: Multi-contoured for various radii.
- Safety Stand: Because your blueprints (and your fingers) deserve to stay un-toasted.
The Shipwright’s Pro-Tip:
"The secret is a light touch. You aren't trying to melt the wood; you're just introducing enough heat to make the fibers cooperate. If you’re working with thick hull planks, a quick 3-minute soak followed by the bender will make that wood feel like wet noodles."
*Note: Use of this tool outside of the US will require applicable Voltage / Plug conversion adapters for your area / location.

Strong, Reliable Plates That Handle Any Meal
Size: Extra Large (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using the Dixie Ultra Large Paper Plates for a while now, and they really stand out from regular paper plates. At 11 inches, they’re a great size for big meals, and the 25-count pack lasts long enough for gatherings or family dinners. What impressed me the most is how sturdy they are—3 times stronger than typical paper plates.
These plates hold up well even with heavy or messy foods without bending or leaking, which is a huge plus. They’re also microwave-safe, so reheating food is easy without worrying about the plate falling apart. Plus, they’re soak-proof and cut resistant, making them perfect for anything from saucy pasta to juicy burgers.
If you want plates that won’t fail you during mealtime, these Dixie Ultra plates are a solid choice for strength and convenience.

Fantastic plates!
Size: Extra Large (Pack of 1)
These plates were huge--perfect for the Thanksgiving feast. The plates were sturdy and held up to the weight of the food. Even others in attendance commented on how good the plates were and that they were big enough to hold larger portions which meant people didn't have to go back for seconds. The thickness of the plates was good--gravy didn't leak through. I plan to buy them again for future large holiday meals.

These plates are sturdy and designed to hold even the heaviest of meals without bending or folding, which is a huge plus when you're serving barbecue or pasta dishes.
One of the standout features is their size; they’re large enough to accommodate generous portions, making them perfect for parties or picnics. I also appreciated the attractive design, which adds a nice touch to the table setting.
Cleanup was a breeze, as they are disposable and save me from the hassle of washing up after the event. Additionally, they don’t soak through easily, so I didn’t have to worry about any leaks or messes, even with saucy foods.
Overall, I highly recommend Dixie Ultra Large Paper Plates for anyone looking for a reliable and stylish disposable plate option. They combine functionality with aesthetic appeal, making them a perfect choice for any occasion!
