    CAST YOUR ANCHOR sells a brass 2.5mm sheave. that difference (.5mm) shouldn't make a difference. Don't know what you have in the way of tools but I've made some sheaves out of brass rod. cut them with my Dremel tool then file them down. Hardest part is getting the hole centered.

    To those who responded to my previous inquiry regarding the rigging of the Confederacy, THANK YOU. In my research I came across some words relating to the mast length and taper that I can't find and info on . HEAD FEET, HOUNDS, HEEL or BUTT, and CAP. Any help here again would be appreciated.

    In the Nautical Research Journal it list the length of the mast for the Confederacy, what does "HEAD FEET" mean. Haven't been able to find it in any books. Thanks Tom Recker

About the NRG

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. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
