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.
Mini Shaver?

I am using 1/16 inch and 1/8 inch sticks and dowels the issue us many are a bit crooked or have bumps giving the finished
sheet a look that is not uniform when glued together. Is there a tool like a shaver I can use to make sure all sides or
level before gluing? I have seen such tools for larger pieces of woodbut, given the size of the sticks and dowels I fear I will have to manually file or sandpaper each piece before gluing.
