    I decided to self-produce the strips of the second planking, I bought it from a carpenter a scrap of veneer, which I cut into pieces of about 30 cm. Then, on one side only, I brushed glue diluted with water so as not to make the pulping wood during cutting. Using a paper trimmer I cut the wood (oak) in strips of 3 mm. Mauro

    I continued the first planking and placed the deck ... Mauro

    As I always do in my models, I apply inside the hull a mix of white glue, wood chips, sawdust and small wood scari. This gives more strength to the hull and prevents shrinkage and twisting of the planking . Mauro

    I've almost finished the planking, I'll have a little sanding to make it smooth. Mauro

    Hello Doris, great job, as always !!! I downloaded every single picture of your model, it is a veritable encyclopedia of ship modeling !!! Mauro

    I started to lay the first planking , the kit had to be very old because the strips are virtually dry ...... even keeping them to soak for hours. Are prone to breaking, I put them carefully and forcing them as little as possible. At the end of a good sanded remit all right! Mauro

    Little progress in my ship yard ..... Mauro

    Hello Bluenose, the imagination often gives us effective solutions with little expense - Mauro

    Hi Bindy, of course there is room for you !!!!! Reinforcements wooden L-shaped are my idea "patented" a few years ago ........... sometimes even I have some nice idea. See you soon ... Mauro

    Hi Bluenose , it's nice to have a companion navigation in the construction of the Beagle, good job! Mauro
  19. maurino
    Thanks Robert, probably reinforcements are not necessary, but with a little effort I have a much more robust hull! Mauro
  20. maurino
    Slowly I continue to apply the reinforcements ......... Mauro
  21. maurino
    Thanks Bluenose , see you soon with new updates!Mauro
  22. maurino
    Thanks Gabe, I hope that my work on the brig you like it ........ Mauro
  23. maurino
    I removed the deck to be able to work from inside the hull, I broke the bulwark stanchion of the frame .... will fix them later. I put the wood L profile to reinforce the coupling keel-frame . Mauro
  24. maurino
    Hi Bluenose , I also have the monograph of Conway, I will use it to try to correct the errors in the kit. I hope to obtain a sailing ship fairly faithful to the original. Mauro

    Years ago I purchased a kit of hms Beagle already started by another modeller, I have now decided to start my model as "Fisching schooner" is coming to an end. Here's how it appeared at the brig at the time of purchase . Mauro

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.
