I haven't built one, but I have found a site for you that describes how to do it. The writer says that it takes 6-8 weeks before the sea dries and the ship can be fitted into it. so, over 6-8 weeks http://seafarer.netfirms.com/2-bottle.htm

I tried. It came with tiny dowels which were supposed to be drilled so strings for the mast could go through. I finally threw everything in together, corked it, and called it, shipwreck in a bottle.

I build wooden model ships as a hobby. I've done one, from what I would consider a cheaper kit. The bottle was the size and shape of a hip flask, the model when completed was about 4 inches long and 4 high, with a sea scape diorama of blue clay, with white paint for whitecaps. Start to finish, the kit took approximately 5 hours. I couldn't find any proper tools for this job, other than a clay sculptors knife. Most of the other tools I used to raise rigging, apply cement etc, I had to fashion myself.
