    Chuck I think the FOMO is real. We have all seen so many of the suppliers we have used for years not make it and disappear for one reason or another. When you produce such great quality it is difficult to imagine what we'll do when you are no longer manufacturing. If you missed out on starting a Winchelsea, Speedwell, Cheerful, Longboat or the Royal Barge those are gone. (Although eventually Vanguard might be selling those the tariffs and shipping might be somewhat problematic). For stuff like blocks, rope, etc your quality is really really good and I don't think a lot of us think we can produce anything comparable. For a business it is an awesome place to be. For one man making ALL the stuff himself I imagine it is a bit much. So take your time, re-open whenever you can and hopefully we aren't stressing you out too much.

    Have fun! That will be a great opportunity as many of us will never walk the decks of the ships we work on.

    That is some great progress there.

    After listening to the Mariners mirror podcast about three weeks ago about the search for this ship I began reading a little bit more about it. Now it’s found! I guess they started a little PR tour a bit early haha

    Outstanding work Ryland! Well deserved award

    Seems odd. Both of you have posted as I presume your correct accounts (BikerMart and Landlubber Mike). Clicking on your profile seems to work normally. The techies may have an idea

    This was a nice little kit very well designed and I just finished it myself. Haha! Endwalker just dropped and I am pretty sure it's available on a PS. Enjoy!

    Welcome to the forum. You will find a wealth of information here with many who are eager to help with any questions you have. Although I now live in Ohio I grew up in Baltimore and having the inner harbor area ships as well as one of the worlds greatest collection of model ships in Annapolis is wonderful inspiration.

    That's a very smooth run there. Your attention to detail is really showing

    Outstanding result Ryland. Your build has been a joy to follow. You should be proud of this work and I eagerly await your next build

    The entire point of the meme is to make the internet rage-nerd trolls react. Having a FireFly character saying something from the Star Trek franchise and attributing it to a Star Wars character is what makes it funny. Kinda like this one.. A lord of the Rings character quoting a Star Wars guy and attributed to a Harry Potter character... The original Dr Who Dalek getting mistaken for a Star Wars droid then not even knowing that and saying you liked him in Star Trek is pretty funny

    Hehe very similar to a tee-shirt I saw many years ago had this on it…

    Looking forward to this build

    Druxey, I like that you show what can be done with a 1/4" chisel. Excellent work as always

    Very nice video Allan

    Very nice cross section. Can't wait to see it displayed on the stand and in the case

    I think having a featured article in the Nautical Research Guild journal would be a great place to start. Also many of us here are members of local modeling clubs which publish monthly newsletters. A short(ish) write up of the project which we could include in the newsletter would reach many more. I am eagerly looking forward this project.

    I really enjoy following along with this you’re doing such a great job here

    Allan, already signed up

    I listened to the podcast and it is an interesting addition to my list. I am looking forward to future episodes

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.
