    I am deeply sorry to hear about Rodney’s passing. Your Astrolabe build will be a meaningful and heartfelt tribute to his memory.

    Congratulations on reaching this milestone. No apologies needed for your excitement. I would be jumping for joy if this were my model.

    Your Sherbourne is looking good. We all have instances where we say "why did I do that this way". There have been many times where I thought that I should have put more thought into doing a particular step on my model.

    Welcome to Model Ship World Peter. Once you start building your wooden ship model, you will have a lot of support from the members here on MSW. The Nautical Research Guild has a motto "taint a hobby if you gotta hurry". I have no doubt that you will do just fine in this hobby.

    You are off to a good start. Should be an interesting build.

    Welcome to Model Ship World. It looks like you are off to a good start. I am glad you figured out the false deck fit problem. You definitely want to sand the deck after you have laid down the individual deck planks. I usually start with 150 grit, then progress to 240 grit and finish with 320 grit. Just take off enough wood to make the deck smooth. Good luck on your build.

    To see the build logs that you follow, you can click on the "More" button at the top of the page. It then gives you a list of options in the drop down box. Click on the "All content that I follow" and it will give you a list of the build logs that you follow.

    My method for threading line through holes in deadeyes and blocks is to put some CA glue on the end of the line, maybe about 1/4" worth. Then wipe it off of the line. Once the CA is dry, take a hobby knife and cut the CA soaked end on an angle. This hardened end is then threaded through the deadeye or block. Works every time for me.

    Hi middlyjohn and welcome to Model Ship World. Sounds like you are off to a good start in building wooden ship models. There are three ship modeling clubs in the Chicago area. Two meet using Zoom, with one also having in person meetings. The other club meets in person only as the Club's meeting venue does not support Zoom.

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.
