Thanks, Al. It looks like it's a very useful material for certain circumstances.

Well that's a bummer! Did you happen to see an evil doppelgänger of you hanging out at the show with sticky fingers?

I'm not familiar with laser board, Al. Where do you get it?

I'm really disappointed with the quality of the metal pieces supplied in my Pen Duick kit by AL also. They are crude and often totally unrealistic looking. Hopefully, they are small enough that they won't be noticed that much but I see them sticking out like a sore thumb!

Replacing many of the plywood parts is making a big difference that you can really see. It's disappointing that the kit even used plywood for some of these visible parts in the first place. Your attention to detail with these little upgrades is going to make your model much better. Nice job, Rodger!

You did a really nice job in a short period of time and I'm sure the crew and attendees at the commissioning ceremony were impressed with your model even if it was as complete as you would have like it to be. Thanks for all the photos also. They stir up memories of my Coast Guard years from long ago.

Your model is really taking shape, Mark, and it's going to be special when you have her all done. Nice work!

The model of this legendary ship is so cool! This will be on my ever growing tick list. It sounds like you had a fantastic trip, Hake. I'd be interested to know what your research is that took you France and Sweden.

Fantastic model and beautifully displayed in that elegant case! Is that the Cheerful in the box?

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.
