Good morning, all, newbie here. I am building Revell's USS Kearsarge in 1/96th scale. I've come up with a question. I just obtained Scaledecks wooden deck, and they threw in photo-etched pivot gun tracks for the 11" Dahlgrens. Would these tracks have been inlet into the deck so as to sit flush, or did they stand proud of the deck? The kit has them sitting barely proud, and the photo-etch would do the same. Thank you in advance, Alan

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.
