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.

Hi, we are building the SM also and have reached this stage and are about to try and secure the false deck to the hull. Our intention is to steam this and glue it and hope this will be correct as there are no instructions for this step. On the false deck, we have cut out the four holes which appear on the cut out, I see that you have not done this and wonder if you have a reason for this. Have found your pictures very informative and it seems following your wake that we have reached the same point. It would be great to have more input and wonder where you are? It has been a while since your last post, do hope you have not given up just at the point of us finding you, we are first time builders and this an adventurous project! Look forward to hearing from you. My email address is lascott@webafrica.org.za if that is helpful, sometimes I have difficulty accessing the site. Enjoy your day, Lesley Ann Scott. Capetown.
