    Some details of the sailwinch. Again; I´ve tried to make a little dictonary: Plasticrør - styr for line = Plastictube - guide for drawline. Trækline = Drawline. Fjeder = Spring. Plasticringe = Plasticrings. Sejlvinde = Sailwinch. princip2.bmp
  22. Steen B
    The principles of how I´m going to control the sails (Basicly the same principles I´ve used in my other RC-yacht "Heimdal"). And for that minority of you, who DOESN´T speak/read Danish fluently, I´ve made a little "dictionary". Sejlvinde til forsejl = sailwinch for foresail, jib and flying jib. Skøde gennemføring = feedthrough for sheet. Linen passerer forbi ruller... = Line passes rollers. Storsejlsskøde = Sheet for the mainsail. Skødet løber gennem en.... = Sheet passes through pulley. Line til storsejlsskøde = Drawline for mainsail. Sejlvinde til storsejl = sailwinch for mainsail. Line til forsejlsskøder = Drawline for foresail, job and flying jib. Skøde til fok = Sheet for foresail. Skøde til klyver = Sheet for jib. Princip.bmp

    Some brass-items. Some of them blackened - some not yet.

    "Inspection in the shipyard by the skipper". My oldest daughter made these Photos. I thought I would let you see them.
  25. Steen B
    Hi Patrick My fault! I havn´t made a Building log of Heimdal, so you can only find her in the gallery. If you search there for Heimdal, you´ll get some Pictures of her that I´ve posted. Best regards Steen

    The grating to be placed in connection with the rudder-house.

    Hi Nils About the link in #5-post: I couldn´t get the link-icon to work properly, so instead I just wrote the web-adress. Try to copy this adress and use it in a webbrowser. Best regards Steen

    More fittings. On these pictures, the "Cooking-house" still hasn´t got the roof mounted and the windlass is in a very rough state (= painting, sanding, painting, sanding, painting, sanding...... still needs to be done ). By the way: As my scale of building seems to be the same as many dollhouses (1:12) my wife has "threatened" to install some dollhouse-things in the cooking-house; plates, mugs, knifes & forks and some sausages hanging from the ceiling!

    Hi Nils I promised you some drawings of "Jens Krogh" - here they are.
  30. Steen B
    Hi Patrick You´re right. "Jens Krogh" is not the first RC vessel I have build - it´s the second. If you search for "Heimdal" here in the forum, you can see some photos of my first RC vessel - also some snapshots during sailing. I myself specially like this picture
  31. Steen B
    Hi Patrick. Yes, it´s not a small model. The length of the hull is a Little more than 120 cm´s (4 ft.) and the bowsprit is ca. 30 cm (1 ft.). I sure hope that she will sail in a realistic manner, and furthermore I hope I can avoid using an extern leadkeel. I´m planning to make some internal ballastpieces, which can be placed and removed through the hatch. I have made a test in a bathtub, and about 12 kg.´s will be needed to bring her down to the waterline. I intend to make 6 small leadpieces (shaped to fit inside the cargohold) 2 kg´s each. Hopefully this will be sufficient to ensure realistic sailing. Best regards Steen

    How the model looks today (8th of December 2015). A lot of more work is to be done. As can be seen, I have made some more "fittings" including the wheelhouse and other bits and parts. Notice the "Cooking-house" just aft the maimast. This was a special feature of fishing vessels from the Northern part of Jutland/Denmark.
  33. Steen B
    Time for some fittings.

    Deadeyes - made of oakwood - fitted. The Photo is slighty out of focus - sorry ´bout that.

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.
