G'day I've have both the electric plank bender as well as the crimping type. Take my advice and buy the electric. It's far superior because it will bend the timber evenly, while the crimper bends it on the crimped joint only. You will have to do many crimping only 1mm or so apart to get a smooth bend. Doing this there's a large change of breakage. All the best on what you decide. Greg

G'day Dave Great job/progress! Can't fault a thing. I've done my air and light ports on my as well......bloody tedious. I took a log of my times and would you believe it was 48 hours to make the surrounds and lid. I'm cheating with the hinges, they will be fixed and all are dummies. Cheers mate Greg

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.
