Man Builds 100-Foot Replica of the Titanic in His Backyard
Scotish ship enthusiast Stan Fraser has spent eleven years of his life building a 100-foot model of the Titanic, in his own backyard.
The 46-year-old former lighting engineer has always had a thing for the Titanic as well as maritime items in general, and his house in Inverness is filled with life jackets, models of other ships and copies of old newspaper articles reporting the Titanic’s tragic accident. His mother used to tell him lots of seafaring stories when he was a child, and he developed a strong passion for the sea that stuck with him throughout his life. He chose a nautical theme for his house and turned his cousin’s old rowing boat into a pirate ship for his kids.
But it was the famous Titanic that fascinated Fraser the most, as he says it was the most beautiful ship ever made, even compared to modern sea liners. He started working on a small replica of the Titanic for fun, but he kept making it bigger until he decided on a 1:100 scale model of the ship. Stan used two caravans he had in the garden as the base of his masterpiece, then someone gave him an old shed to use as material, and another friend who was building a house, helped him out with wood and nails. This got him started, but he spent the next eleven years working on his incredibly detailed model.
Now, the passionate builder wants to open a maritime museum and cafe with his Titanic model as the centerpiece. The new tourist attraction is scheduled for inauguration next April, for the 100th anniversary of the Titanic tragedy, and will feature other interesting models like a yacht, a galleon, a submarine and even a model of Noah’s Ark filled with stuffed animals for children to play with.

Movie model used in 'Raise the TItanic'
Here is a selection of original photographs of the huge model made for the 1980 movie based on Clive Cusslers bestseller "Raise The Titanic!". To date, this model is the largest ever made of Titanic, and costing in 1980 some $5 million to construct. It is indeed an impressive model, weighing 10 tons with a height of 12 feet and a length of 55 feet. The main hull section is one peice fibre glass and the upper structure and deck details made from steel, wood and resin. The inside of the hull is fitted throughout with piping and floatation tanks to allow water to pass through the model easily during the raising scenes.
The model was built with the help of Titanic historian and artist Ken Marschall during late 1979 at the CBS film studio's in California. Originally, the model was built showing Titanic when completed in 1912 and without those now much talked about tall cowling vents. The original begining to the film was to show the Titanic sinking, using the model, but for reasons unknown, the sinking scenes were removed and replaced with the photo montage.
In early 1980, the films FX crew them went to work changing the model from her 1912 look to a ship that has spent 68 years underwater. As deck scenes for the movie were filmed aboard the ex Grace Line passenger liner Athinai, some parts of the Titanic model had to be altered. A small bulkhead was palced on the tips of the models bows, followed by three large cowling vents. Next came the broken 2 funnel. It is beleived that any photo advertising showing the model "bursting" out of the water would not look to effective if the forward funnel was missing, she would not look like Titanic, so they sacrificed the second stack instead. On the decks of the ship, some vents were taken away and some were changed, most noticibly is the skylight covering, this was enlarged and the ventilation pipe from the large vent at the back of the No1 funnel was removed. One final item was added to the model in the form of 6 large metal hoops which can be seen oon the boatdeck during the "fly over" scene after the ship is raised. If you take a closer look at the superstructure of the model, you will see a seperation in the plates running underneath the B-deck area, this is the join in the ship. The upper structure lifts away from the main hull so that the pipes and floatation tanks inside the hull can be reached, and this is why the model also has those 6 hoops, lifting hoops. Also built for the film were 3 model subs, 5 navel vessels, another 2 Titanic models, one at 8 feet and the another at 4 feet, and some floatation tanks used to raise the ship along with depth charges.
The tank taht was built to house the model cost $2 million to construct. It was 240 feet across and 40 feet deep. At the base of the tank was a large turntable that was made to represent the Atlantic seafloor. As the Titanic model was built to withstand the pressure of the endless times that it had to be raised from the tank, it did however cause problems with filming. Special camera's had to be built that would run 15 times the normal speed. The end result was breathtaking as the Titanic burst's up from the oceans depths.
The whole film cost $38 miilion to make in 1980, with only $11 million taken at the cinama. The man behind the movie, this British film mogul Lord Lew Grade commented after "it would have been cheaper to lower the Atlantic". In some ways Raise The Titanic has become a classic movie, and there is a part in all of us that wishes that the real Titanic looked the way she does in the movie.
