I am building Revell's old 1/400 USS Mission Capistrano which was a T2 tanker. I am scratch building several parts, along with redoing the aft superstructure to match her actual design. I am having a hard time getting information on the design of the anchor windlass and was wondering if anyone would have any idea of where I could get better information. I have studied many images of her and sister ships, and though there are a few that shows some detail, I need better information. Thanks, Ron W.

Book on planking
bushman32 replied to Fraser1945's topic in Building, Framing, Planking and plating a ships hull and deck
Don't forget Donald Dressel's book Planking Techniques for Model Ship Builders. Excellent book. -

Shoot, mine are well over 25 years old and I need new ones. Hopefully some day.

Old Navy here and I love my coffee!

I was wondering if the NRG has any plans to bring back the coffee mugs. My old coffee mugs are worn out and I would like to replace them. Thanks, Ron W.

NRG, MSB, SIS flash drives
bushman32 replied to bushman32's topic in NAUTICAL RESEARCH GUILD - News & Information
I got the things working. However, with the Ships in Scale there are several issues missing. Looks like from 1990 to 1999. Anyone have any ideas? Ron W. -

Floquil Marine Colors

How I wish we still had Floquil Marine Colors. -
I got the NRG, MSB, and SIS flash drives for my computer but cannot figure out how to properly install them. I am running Windows 11, can someone help me with the installation? Thanks, Ron W. Edit: I got MSB working but having issues with NRG "menu". Shows me the list of volumes but can't click on any, and SIS "later years". This shows the volumes with no issue covers and can't access the magazines. Thanks.

Greg, I don't suppose you still have Peter Huff's plans that you would be willing to part with? Ron W.

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.
