    I did not serve rope. Only a small part around the mouse. It's not authentic, but I did not have enough knowledge to do it correct like in real practice. But I have learned a lot from other logs and have an idea now what needs to be served. With the next ship I will go further with perfecting the rigging and serve the line. And I would buy a serving machine, like Chuck Passaro's one. That looks much easier and more enjoyable.

    You are going fast now! Looks wonderful Do you find it difficult to finish it with the Pegasus waiting on the shelf? I must keep myself on track with the Pickle and not just quick want to finish it

    Just received the replacements of the warped false keel parts from the Pegasus. This time they are dead straight. Thanks to the good service from Cornwall Model Boats and Amati.

    Did you already experimented with the traveler iron? I bought also one after seeing it in the video of Chuck.

    Here are some close-ups. I hope this helps. If you need specific parts that needs to be clear, let me know! There is on the foremast a pendant that is not hanging right haha...I will need to fix that...stubborn piece of rope

    Thank you! I will take some pictures this afternoon👍. Just take everything step by step. By the way...those hanging pendants, that you need to attach at the beginning on the main mast cap...those aren't for anything. They are just hanging there . You can even see it on the box with the prototype. Hm...I will think about it, but maybe i'm saving that for the Pegasus But thanks for al your input in this log, it's very inspiring!
  21. Ronald-V
    Thanks for al the compliments and likes by the way, that's always motivating!

    I saw that the Pegasus did have a rigged rudder, but did the Pickle have that also?
  23. Ronald-V
    Rigging is finished!🤯 Still need to do the rope coils on the belaying points, but i'm happy it's finished.
  24. Ronald-V

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.
