    Thank you, Ray, that was exactly what I needed to know. I have been playing around with several different gauges of wire to make ringbolts and hooks for a 1:48 model I am building, and I felt that yours were fairly close to the right size for that scale. Thanks again for your help. Si

    Hey, Ray....... Fine work on your Triton cross section; very much envied. Question: What gauge wire, or diameter, did you use for your ringbolts you made (I assume) for your gun tackles? Thanks. Si

    Hey, Here are a few more Triton 3D's (if I can figure out how to post them).......... Si Edit: here are a couple more that I found.........

    Office Depot can print from one scale to another from a disc, and I felt that they were reasonable. Office Max was much more extreme on their pricing. Si

    Try "re-painting" with black india ink. You will be pleasantly surprised. Si

    Hey......... Try using some birch hardwood planks. Soak them for about a half hour, clamp in place and leave it to dry or use Mama's blow dryer. It will stay in the position you set it in. After you soak it in water for a while, you can probably tie it in a knot. Si

    Hey...... Nice work; I will soon have to learn this task. Hope they come out as well. Si

    Try some planks made from Birch. You can almost twist it into a pretzel after soaking. jim

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.
