    They look convincingly like wood to me Jesse. Nice job!

    Thanks John. I hope you and yours have a Happy Thanksgiving as well.

    Thought about getting that one myself, but didn't like the Jig-saw layout either, beside the fact it doesn't have the depth of cut as most scroll-saws. I'll just go with the Rikon Scroll Saw and the 5-year warranty.

    Sure is a great looking model! Looking forward to tackling this one myself. Have a Happy Thanksgiving Chuck.

    Looking good Jack. Have a Happy Thanksgiving yourself.

    Looks like they're keeping you busy Jim.

    Excellent job on the head-rail Tom. Have a Happy Thanksgiving yourself.

    You did a good job picking up where those lazy ants left off Piet. Keel-hauling's too good for them. I'd have made them walk the plank. Cheers

    Nice work John! She looks great all filled out.

    Keeping a "quench bowl" handy helps a lot if you're using grinding wheels. If the metal turns blue, it's lost it's temper. I prefer hand stones myself, but to each their own.

    Good to see you back at it Geoff. Got the same ropewalk myself, but haven't had any time to put it through any rope-making trials yet. I'll be interested in your results.

    Beautiful work Frank. Congrats!

    Very nice Bob!

    Real nice looking ship's boats Ken. I sense another "build-staple" for this kit coming on.

    Jim doesn't keep an inventory of tools there. They're all made when the order is placed. Shouldn't take much more than a couple weeks though.

    That's always my intention Piet. However -- there's a fine line between fun and trouble!

    She looks great Dave, and done with lightning-speed. Your "Doc" will love it, after getting over the initial deception.

    Absolutely beautiful Frank. Absolutely beautiful!!

    You're doing a bang-up job on such a small scale Piet. I know it can't be easy. I'll see if Nenad can part with a few of his "working ants" to lend a hand for a while.
  21. GLakie
    Swweeeeet!!
  22. GLakie
    Those are really great shots of her Karl. Beautiful!
  23. GLakie
    Always nice to see "working parts" Patrick. Very nice!!
  24. GLakie
    She's looking great John. Gonna send a PM in a few minutes.

    Nice work Nenad!

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.
