    That’s the way to do it. if the lid becomes stuck run a butane torch around the lids edge, that little bit of heat will soften the shellac and you should be able to unscrew the lid easily.

    Could you run some clear Matt finish over it once it’s rigged on the model? that would cut the sheen.

    An excellent choice for a scratch build. Tally Ho is a beautiful sailboat.

    Keith, If it were I, I would leave the stabilizers off the boat. The gracefulness of the hull is just too sweet to have something hanging off it. Here’s a similar hull of a plastic kit currently being built.

    A beautiful little ship.

    And away she goes. Yesterday in Penobscot bay. She will now leave US waters for Turkey.

    Search for rifiler files. I believe that will fit the bill.

    Does anyone know of publications printed around 1855? specific to rigging large American ships. This is for a real boat rigger friend of mine who’s at a loss on this era of rigging. Thanks.

    That ice is the best looking ice I ever seen. Excellent!
  22. jerome started following Hurricane Island Pulling Boat by em_fo - Laughing Whale - 1:24 - first build

    And in case you’re curious. Cyrus Hamlin designed this pulling boat. Plans for this boat may be here: Additional material, including the majority of Hamlin's ships plans, can be found in the Daniel S. Gregory Ships Plans Library, Mystic Seaport Museum, Mystic, CT.

    Wow! finally someone building this long ago made kit. I vaguely remember this kit. I live close to Rockland, Maine and grew up just south of Rockland so remember the Outward bound school and there pulling boats. Never seen a build of the kit so will be interesting to follow along. Good luck. one tip for the planking aspect. put scotch tape on the molds so t when glueing the planks on you do not inadvertently glue them to the molds.

    I was wondering how much work you’d get accomplished being in the museum working on this model. You have become an entity and can answer questions for visitors. Visitors like this kind of thing. best of luck on this renovation/ build.

    A great looking build you’ve got going on Jon. shes a real beauty being painted white.
  27. jerome
    Nice to see this beautiful boat being built.

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.
