    Thank you Helmsman, There were a few tools in those pages that I don't have and I can see where they will quite handy. Definitely will need to get on of those keel/bulkhead jigs. Need to keep everything straight and true right from the start.

    Hello everyone, Juan here. I am new to wooden ship modeling but not to modeling. I have been building plastic for more years than I care to admit and building and flying R/C planes for the past few years. My question to you fine people is What would you consider as essential tools specific to wood ship building. I want to get started on my HMS Beagle, but not before I have everything in place. I plan on doing an out-of-the-box build just to become familiar building techniques and rigging. Not going for historical accuracy this time. So with that said, what's in your workshop.... tool wise. Thank you in advance for your help and advise.

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.
