    Construction of the base I wanted to make the base to be set out in the window, in order to have the ship on a slipway site. I wanted to get an antique effect as some models in museums. I used a wooden base that I covered, cherry wood, with the grain in the central part oriented to the long side, and on the edges perpendicular. I added a decoration between the two frames I put the tape to leave free areas for bonding. The finishing was done with shellac

    Construction of the anchors I realized the anchors with the bars and plates of brass. I have realized a form of wood for the curvature. I soldered the pieces with tin. After I finished with the drill Proxxon

    Test of of burnishing I had never used this type of burnishing. From the evidence I've seen that's not good to leave the piece immersed until the burnishing, but it is best to immerse and then take it off after 20-30 seconds, then go left to air and then rub with a woolen cloth. after the operation must be repeated 8/9 times to get a good coating. I had a kind of burnishing that works in one dive, it was given many years ago now is ending and I lost the recipe ....

    Riveting bridge I tried different techniques to see which one was better. I made several holes with tips 0.5 / 0.6 / 0.8 mm I inserted the tip of a graphite pencil in the hole and then I put a bit of glue. then sanded after this is the effect obtained. The system toothpicks is great but very long and I did not want to use it.

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.
