    Sorry for your loss EJ

    Looks great

    I agree, those screws will tear the wood up, there is no pressure on the deck so only a small amount of downward force is needed to keep it in place until the glue sets

    Nice and neat I hate it when you get some epoxy squeezing out when you apply the clamps, the cleanup is so sticky

    Certainly looks like a strange set up whichever way you go. Bit of a dilemma. But as usual, your kit do it your way :)

    Hi Don thanks Not far to go now. Still have some wooden bowls to make and hammocks that are suspended between the overhead beams and some Cannon tools and the cannon ball racks to fit to the decks then i can do the upper deck, but not too much to do on that as show in the box picture in post #1

    Have you noticed how much easier it is to glue yourself the the parts than it is to unglue yourself

    Give them a ring to check because if they have been busy with orders they are a bit slow updating their site as it's not a live stock site which update themselves Euromodels do the Amati 52mm ones too but it doesn't say if they are in stock or not http://www.euromodels.co.uk/index.php?CATEGORY=20&SUB=2&THISPAGE=1&RADIOSORT=4&PICFILE=6766&STKNR=6766&STRH=2618&ORDN=4794&RNZ=357101 Personally i would wait rather than go down the plastic route also they are only 40mm wide

  14. cobra1951

    Looks like a nice kit, good luck with it
  16. cobra1951
    Just found this log, looks like a great little kit and it's being put together in an extremely neat way
  17. cobra1951
    Love them both and they are not too small either, going by the dimensions
  18. cobra1951
    That looks like a great little kit, even better if you had both that one and the completed boat one
  19. cobra1951
    All those little things left to do can sometimes take up as much time as the main part of the build
  20. cobra1951
    Cheers Don A few cloth sacks next
  21. cobra1951
    Made the buckets for both builds In place on the deck
  22. cobra1951
    Thanks Nick Very helpful, shows me some of the parts supplied in my kit are not too far away from the real thing.
  23. cobra1951
    Thanks EJ Also getting harder to get my hands in there too which is why i left all the upper planking off till after i finish the gun deck
  24. cobra1951
    Placed them on the decks between the guns but not directly central between them as i do not want it to look too uniform Thanks again for the input guys
  25. cobra1951
    Thanks Don Well they are either slow fuses as we think, or maybe cans of worms

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.
