    Nice little construction

    On the first layer of planks i do nothing with the holes as they will be covered by the second layer. For the second layer i don't use nails, like you i use CA along the full length of the bottom, but not along the edges so it doesn't squeeze out between the planks

    Thanks Frank A lot of the time I use push pins on the first planking instead of nails. It stops the planks riding up like they sometimes do on nails

    It's a very thick stew First made as it was a cheap way of feeding a family as most stews are. If it's made with no meat and just vegetables it's called blind scouse

    Yes there's a fine line with plywood between soaking it long enough to bend and soaking too long so that the layers seperate I always leave it at least 24 hours to dry out then it holds it's shape Looks like you have a nice straight assembly for planking

    Oops sorry to hear that . Empty out your hoover then hoover the floor and check the hoover afterwards. They are probably hiding under the fridge.

  23. cobra1951
    Looking down the length of the ship those rails look nice and straight

    That's the reason i made my own Bryan, they looked a bit over the top to me but that's just my opinion

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.
