    Hello everyone. Last year I successfully completed the construction of the Le Gros Ventre model according to Gerard Delacroix's monograph and I chose L'Amarante as the next model (also according to GD's monograph). I started the construction of the POF at the end of last year and will gradually publish photos from the construction process here. First, I made a jig for installing the individual frames on the keel and started assembling the keel.

    Once again, thanks to everyone for the positive responses. The last two photos remain to be posted. This week I participated in the Class C World Championship (NAVIGA organization) where I received a gold medal for the Le Gros Venter model. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Gerard Delacrox for his technical support during the construction. My next model will again be according to Mr. Delacroix's plans - L'Amarante. marsalv

    The construction came to an end after approx. 4600 hours. All that remains is to post a few last photos and thank all the followers for watching and commenting on the progress of the model construction. Thank you.

    To botra288: the adjustable tabel is "homemade", but you can buy something similar here: https://www.renishaw.com/shop/Product.aspx?Product=R-PCA-135075-12-6 Finishing work continues on the larger boat.

    Small boat interior completed.

    Thank you guys for compliments. To mtbediz - This is a normal slotting cutter, with only a reduced diameter of the shank to be used in the Proxxon milling machine. (https://www.uni-max.cz/produkty/drevoobrabeni/stopkove-nastroje/drazkovaci-frezy/dvoubrite-kratke/drazkovaci-freza-2br-6-19-8-mm) I continue with the second - bigger boat. Here I decided to make the frames from one piece only, because in the end the connection of the individual parts of the frames will be hidden under the floor and will not be visible.

    Unbelievably beautiful work. Bravo.
  36. marsalv
    You're right, druxey. But after gluing a few planks on the ribs, the whole structure is strengthened and there are no problems with it. I finished the outer planking of the small boat. Now I will start on the frame of the larger boat.
  37. marsalv
    Incredibly clean and precise work. Simply beautiful.
  38. marsalv
    Thank you guys. I started making of the boats.

    Fantastic work.

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal.
