    I use a pistolgrip Chineese clone now for a few years and it fits my needs very well. It costed me second hand arround 15 dollar and there are three needles with it. 0,2 0,3 and 0,5mm. It's single action. After a while I bought a better compressor with two motors, a big tank and a big airregulator.

    Hello fellow modelship builder. I am happy to inform You they kicked me out of hospital since yesterday. After I was caught building a small plastic modelkit in the cleaning closet I got my first warning. Begging the nurses for medical bits and pieces like surgical knifeblades, medicationpots and other stuff for the hobby gave me the second and when the team of doctors discovered my hobbylathe and drillpress under the bed they send me home the same day for being incorrigible. Now I have to continue with the medicine I started in hospital and in 2 months I have to dicide how to move on. But I am very happy to be home with my wife and kids again. At the moment I am still weak and very tired but I hope to find some time and energy to start building my ships again Kind regards, Kees

    Very crisp and beautifull. You could almost forget it's made of wood. Vibrand colours. Kind regards, Kees

    Hello fellow MSW-shipbuilders, Thank you for your concerns and your compassion. The past few weeks there were no updates because I was in hospital for the past 5 weeks for treatment with new medications. unfortunately the medications do not give the desired results so i think I have to stay 'in prisson' for at least 5 weeks again for other treatment. Please know that I am not directly physical in danger and I will survive this (again). I am a very sane person but depression is haunting me for all my life. Sometimes the pain is unbearable for me and my family and so I stay searching new ways to survive this and make life a little more worth living. Hope you all have fun building and remember me cause I'll be back......

  16. kees de mol

  17. kees de mol
    Stunning work!
  18. kees de mol
    Nice and smooth finish
  19. kees de mol
    Very nice to see the evolution in your remarkable boat. To me it is a mysterie what your future plans with this boat are but your enthousiasme will help me to start builing again in the future. I wish you lots of fun with the build. Cheers, Kees

    Very nice build of this kit. Looks more like scratch building
  21. kees de mol
    Looks very good when you show the whole length. The scale is very understandable. If the model would be to big it wasnt a building challenge but a big big burdon and you would loose the fun of building. With her 54 inch she might be big but small enough to handle. (I have seen lots of people starting a bis scale model but very few who actually finish the project.) Kind regards, Kees
  22. kees de mol
    very nice build. the wood looks shiny so its very smooth.
  23. kees de mol
    Wow that little ship needs a lot of work. Nice memory to your grandfather and that is in my opinion something to remember when you restore the model. Don't over do and let some parts or paintwork like they are now. So when you have a restored model, you can still see your grandfathers hand on it. Kind regards, Kees
  24. kees de mol
    Nice shapes on the mast and the ship looks very good with some rigging on it.
  25. kees de mol
    smart thing to do with those corners, never thaugth of that

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.
