    I wish they would publish the plans for the table in this Video
  2. Jack12477
    Yes! It comes with instructions and diagrams on how to attach it. Mine is still in the box waiting for a suitable small bench. Been looking at various mini tables on YouTube for ideas.

    Just got confirmation from Lee Valley that my order for the board and one set of dogs has shipped, the other set of dogs are backorder and will ship soon. Admiral doesn't know it yet but she's giving it to me for Christmas 😊😇

    While browsing the Lee Valley website I came across their online 2021 Christmas Catalog. On page 36 they show this cool miniature worktop with 1/3 scale miniature hold down clamps. This is a nice addition to their 1/3 scale miniature Veritas tools.

    Looks good Edward

    Or place a Kleenex tissue over the flash if you can. Try just 1 thickness of tissue to start, add more if needed.

    He's going to need major therapy for that leg caught in that bear trap ! 😳 Looks good Edward !

    Welcome Len, you may find this link useful HRMM. I live a short distance from Hudson River

    You could use a 4mm Macaroni Chisel . No, it's not something you eat😉
  13. Jack12477
    Yep ! That's why some of us refer to them as United Parcel Smashers

    Me too. Started mine after discharge from Army when an Army buddy introduced me to Arnold Rapido N scale train line. Like you, mine are packed away awaiting an heir

    Oh ! Big Leon ! Was never a big fan of Hogan's Heros show. You slid that one right by me 🤦‍♂️
  20. Jack12477
    Must have been a rather rotund individual to require 2 axles and 4 tires to carry all the weight. 😊😇

    Nice job, Tom

    Nice looking pond OC. Water looks very realistic.

    Lynn, don't waste your money. I bought it long time ago. It's not easy to assemble and get everything aligned right, once assembled It's difficult and cumbersome to use. Go to Lowes or Home Depot and pickup a small Carpenter's square. It's a triangular shaped tool . Lee Valley Tools also offers a Carpenter's square that is a mere 1 inch in length. It looks like a toy but is perfect for small models (look under Miniature Tools). You can also build your own keel clamp. I used the Fair-a-Frame once and set it aside. It's gathering dust somewhere. Some ideas : Lee Valley Clamping Squares Carpenter's square aka Rafter Square Lee Valley miniature Carpenter's square Small try square

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.
