    EG, it looks like the car frame. Tweaking the "small" changes is part of the engineering process. I like it. Hope your health holds. Your entries in any log are always worth reading, even if only for the giggles.

    Nicely done. The stacks turned out great.
  18. Canute
    Well done, Gary. 👍

    I'm in, James. This is going to be one, big beast.
  20. Canute
    Great shot, OC.👍
  21. Canute
    Your little add-on looks very good, OC. Nice addition.
  22. Canute
    It'll be interesting to follow along.

    Very impressive, Rob. That's one massive plane. 👍

    There was a dirt track in New Egypt, NJ, where I used to live. Friday and Saturday nights. And bring your goggles, because the clay was spread around, especially thru the corners. That was some pretty exciting racing. Wrecks could be spectacular. I'm sure you old gearheads remember jalopy races. 😄

    Very cool, Craig. Interesting "airboat". Any plans?

    Wall Stadium in NJ was a hot spot. Now it's a housing development with McMansions. 😝 Trenton, Flemington and Langhorn Racetracks from NJ and PA are memorialized by the big NASCAR track in Mt Pocono, PA. The old tracks became shopping centers and condominiums. 😖

    Craig, that's a real puzzlement. I like your solution. Do you really want to chase down a set of wheels for this beauty?🙄

    Frank, I would suspect the wood deck goes over the plastic for support. You will probably have to remove any plastic deck fittings, too. Can you get a copy of the veneer instructions to see what may be required?

    Another putty material is Durham's Water putty. I also use Spot Putty from Bondo. It had an odor, so use outdoors or with adequate ventilation. It sticks nicely to the plastic. You should prime it for painting. Thin sheets of styrene from Evergreen Scale Models. They sell a combo package with a number of thicknesses; the sheets are 4" x 6", I think. Evergreen makes loads of styrene strips and shapes , along with the sheet products. Most is white styrene, but they do make sheets in black. Here's a link: https://evergreenscalemodels.com/

    Saw the glacier outside Anchorage, Alaska and it was as Thukydides describes. Never did see the ones on Denali; always wrapped in clouds.

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.
