Looks good! Planking is definitely a learning experience! I just hope I do well when I get to it. I can only do 1 layer.

Thanks Mike! I have found that it doesn't mark vertical lines very well, so I have reworked the line marker a bit. I will have pictures later. I'm trying to figure out how best to mark the line. One of the hard parts is keeping the hull in its building board. I'm still trying to figure that one out. I have also had trouble with the pencil, but I have a new idea. I'm going to use a rubber band to hold it in place, so it can move to the curves of the hull. Again, I'll have pictures later. Happy building everyone! Until next time.

Your deck looks great! Enjoy the vacation I can't say I've ever been to Montana, but I hear there are mountains. I haven't seen mountains in a while, being from Illinois. I look forward to your return!

Hello everyone! I have had a very busy couple days, and I'm going to be very busy tomorrow. I have made an attachment to the line marker that enables it to draw vertical lines. Legos can be quite handy! Until next time!

This morning I finished the line marker, as well as marked the waterline on the starboard side. The Legos made a perfect fit for my pencil. I can angle the pencil when needed. It's a really simple design. Here's the pictures. In some of them the board appears angled, but that's just my table. Next up is shaping the hull, which included making styrene templates. I feel like I am actually getting some progress! Good night everyone! I also received the new Nautical Research Journal! It looks very good! Until next time!

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.
