G'day Danny Astonishing piece of craftsmanship on the cutter. Like your normal standard, it's second to none! My jaw is so saw, looking at your work. I can't keep my mouth close with amazement. Btw what's size of saw blade do you use and how many teeth? Havagooday Greg

G'day John The type I get has no fragrances nor soap. I've been using them for about 2 years on both non treated timber and varnished timber, and there are no problems. I can paint etc over it and there is no difference. Havagooday Greg

G'day Denis I've got a "blond moment". Why did you use 3 different size drill bits. Aren't they all the same size portholes? Sorry for the dumb question mate! about the brass ring around the portholes, maybe if you can get some very very small beads with a hole in them and paint them a brass colour, you might get away with that. Havagooday mate Greg

G'day Denis Re that hole at the end of the stern, I've been looking at the net and here are some photos I've found. Hope they are a help. It appears to be an ensign staff. Havagooday 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.
