Hi everyone I am wondering if someone knows the best place to get a brass or any metal galley chimney /stack / flue / ventilator / funnel that I can add to my little revenue cutter. Stack should be like 3/4" length tops at 1/64 scale. Havent seen too many of themthey seem surprisingly hard to come by so maybe one of you knows a decent company or version that may have them. I already checked corwall uk. Closest Ive seen is this one below. Charlie

This may be a silly question/ observation. I have often wondered what would happen during a tropical downpour (or other heavy rain) with a relatively large opening down through a chimney to the ship's stove. Was there ever a deflecting cover of some sort over the top opening of the chimney or maybe at the base of the chimney to reduce/ divert what could be a large volume of unwanted water from entering the stove ? The attached image shows what one builder came up with, not from a historical basis but from logic. I have seen some chimneys with a short right-angled section at the top which would work but chimneys are often drawn as simple upright structures. Any comment would be appreciated.

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.
