    Nice way to store and carry the Veritas line of miniature tools.

    There are three major mountain ranges in NY, Catskills by me, Allegheny in western NY, and the Adirondacks across Northern NY. And some lesser ranges scattered about, Berkshires on Massachusetts border. Come visit !

    Yep! Know it well ! Right across the valley from the Old Playboy Club and Resort. They changed the name of the ski area it seems, I remember it as Vernon Valley / McAfee ski area, used to ski there when I was a stationed at Picatinny Arsenal. Not far from my in-laws home. Admiral aand I used to drive right past it on way to visit them (route 94). Great area, Chuck! Heck of a lot more developed that I remember. Best of luck in the move. Oh the Admiral says you should visit High Point for some nice hiking 🚶‍♂️ 😀

    Glad to hear you are uninjured, cats also. Be as long winded as you like, surviving a near miss tornado is very traumatic. Take your time getting back to modeling.

    Ulster County NY has sent crews to NC and Florida as has Albany NY.

    Good to hear OC !

    Old saying in US Military "if it's moving salute it; if it's standing still paint it" 😁😉

    Go to the beginning of your build log, post #1, click on the 3 dots next to the post #, select Edit in the drop down, this will let you edit the title. Click Save when you're done.

    Has anyone heard from our colleagues on Florida's east coast? How they are ?
  11. Jack12477
    What a mess! At least you and admiral are uninjured. Prayers answered.
  12. Jack12477
    Stay safe Craig! I'm not liking the reports we're seeing up here ! This thing seems to be wobbling all over the place.

    They're saying worst in a century
  14. Jack12477
    I think I'll take this over that. A Buffalo Lake Effect 6 footer is preferable Kidding aside, everyone stay safe. Prayers are with you.
  15. Jack12477
    It's now a Category 5 with sustained winds of 160 mph. Everyone stay safe.

    Outstanding model! Well done 👏

    He has not responded to any of my emails or PMs. I do know his house is on high ground and he has a Generax auxiliary generator so he has electric, but the Internet service in that area down. I'm sure between his Air Force training and his experience in Emergency Management in NJ he's pretty prepared but still that storm wiped out some cities and towns in that area

    I don't know about shaky hands but those figures look pretty darn good to me. I like your coiled rope jig also. Ship is looking really good, Andrew

    Talk to your optician anyway. They may have a simple solution. Nothing to lose by asking.
  20. Jack12477
    Before you do that, I would wait until you actually get your new glasses, then take one of your figure pieces with you to your doctor's appointment and discuss your vision issues with him/her. When the doctor has the physical figure in front of him, seeing its actual size and how you hold it to paint, he can recommend ways to continue painting without straining you eyes or your financial budget. You're too good a modeler to give up just yet.

    Latest news from NBC said dam is okay and not failing but evacuees advised to not return until state of emergency is lifted. Dam is on the North Carolina- Tennessee border, town is in Tennessee
  22. Jack12477
    It's there now on your last post
  23. Jack12477
    News reports say storm surge of 15-20 feet in Big Bend area of Florida, that's a small tsunami! Glad you came thru relatively unscathed, Craig.
  24. Jack12477
    Nice work on the sails. Very realistic looking.
  25. Jack12477
    Yep, rode both of them back in 1977. Fantastic ride and scenery as well

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.
