    I will pull up a chair and watch.

    Congratulations on finishing this very fine model of this mighty ship. It has been a joy and a privilege to follow your build log. Øystein

    These models are so nice, I cannot find the proper phrase in English. Do I remember correct that you intended to weather your own model? Have you been salt chipping in secret?

    This funnel is indeed a good candidate for 3D printing. It's really not that difficult once you have gained some (not much) experience with the software. Google and Youtube are excellent sources.

    What a glorious model ! I take my hat off. Well done!

    Looks nice. Looking forward to future updates. I understand you've had problems with adding photos. Maybe there's some help to find in the Q&A section?

    Nice! I notice your lifebuoys are orange. Do you know if that colour was used this early? (I have no idea myself.)

    It's a pleasure to watch your build progress. Frohe weihnachten Aus Norwegen. (Merry christmas from Norway.)

    What a really nice build so far! And thanks a lot for the tip to soak the wood in gin - will indeed prove valuable

    Really nice work, Nils ! You might have solved a puzzle for me: Do you know if the warning sign of twin screws was mandatory?

    Just realised you have been updating you first entry with some life boats. Nice job.

    I have been waiting for an update on this marvelous log. The decks looks nice. Good to have you back in here!

    I will follow this build as I love ships of this era. You will find some additional photos that you might find useful of the Fulani here: http://www.photoship.co.uk/JAlbum%20Ships/Old%20Ships%20F/index17.html Also nice that other Norway based people are on ths forum!

    I have been looking forward to this stage of the build. She looks terrific!

    These skylights turned out really nice indeed. I second your decision to keep the brass finish.

    Your log updates are always interesting and impressive! How do you bend the L-beams to the same radius as the deck curvature without the beams warping?
  17. Oystein
    It is both fun and inspiring to follow your build log. You have given me lots of ideas I plan to try out in a future build.

    Nils: Stumbled upon this link to a page containing a sailing plan plus a number of photos (bottom of page) of the Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse. Might perhaps be of interest for you. http://www.norwayheritage.com/p_ship.asp?sh=kaiwi

    Just want to tell you that I have been following your builds for the last year or so, and that I find them amazing. I'm memory storing lots of methods and techniques from your logs - hopefully employing them on a not so distant future build of mine. Always looking forward to your updates. Gruss aus Norwegen

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.
