    I must have ben lucky then, my Hegner saw still runs very smoothly, very little vibration, even a higher speeds. I must try a new one once and see if if there is a difference. Those saws, albeit pricey seem to be quite popular in Germany and Austria. Greetings, Rudolf

    Hi Juddson, I have been using an old Hegner scroll saw for 20 years or so, I had bought used and I am still happy with it. I has multiple speeds and thus gives you a lot of control over your cut. It looks pretty much like the red saw in Bob Cleeks post. Hegner is still made in Germany Greetings Rudolf

    Kortes, your log is still an inspiration to me and others, the fact that even a master like you needs a few attempts to achieve perfection is somewhat comforting. Keep up the beautiful work! May god bless you and your folks!

    What a beauty George! Not only are the details stunning and the overall proportion of a three decker is perfectly portrayed, also the spirit of a sailing warship in Mediterranean waters arises nicely. Greeting, Rudolf

    Great subject Simon, there used to be a planet by Harold Underhill at 1/96, published by Brown and Ferguson, I do not know however if and where they are available nowadays. Greetings, Rudolf

    Hi Dave , I have recently acquired a Festool Midi shop Vac with a class M Filter. I runs very quietly, sucks great and the hose works like charm when I use it with my hand held circular saw. Pricey, but worth it , I should say. Greetings, Rudolf

    Hello Eberhard, Thank you very much for your inspirational postings. Do you think that your Little laser will be able to cut deck Planks, say 1,2 mm wide 6 cm Long out of Costello or maple veneer? Thank you. Greetings, Rudolf

    Hi Jens, beautiful work, the bulwarks are super, how did you adatch the stanchions to the aluminium bulwarks? Greetings, Rudolf

    Hello Carlos, Congratulions to your model. I especially like the combination of the POB construction and your phantastic timber work on the surface of the model, much like in full scale ship building. Greetings Rudolf

    Hi Ed, as you suggested I printed the patterns aout in original size on A4 paper, it worked well, there was no distortion. A few years ago I tried to plank a model of Red Jacket scatch build to Mr Crothers´ plans. I juts could not plant the round counter properly altough I tried spilling. Will try your method if find the time for modelling again. Your planking job is exceptional, but once paited will it be visible at all? The book is a joy to read and a motivation to start buildng again as soon as possible. Greetings, Rudolf

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.
