    Looking good, mate (the boat, not the hands). :-) Hope you get to feeling better soon!
  2. trippwj
    The force is strong in that one...

    Looks good so far, Bob. Your solution seems reasonable to me!

    Yowza! Fantastic work, sir. Looks sweet!

    Fantastic work, Sherry. Could you send my silk worms back if you are done weaving?

    That windlass came out great - she's looking sharp!

    Unfortunately, no. It was all lost in the great crash of 2013. I am away from most of my research materials this week but will look through what I have with me and see if I can turn anything up.

    looks nice - keep your fingers crossed that you will soon be seeing this!

    Sjors - I found this while I was walking along the shore this evening in New Hampshire and thought it may have been dislodged from your SI... Hope all is going well - how are you making out on the metal work? Seeing the rest of your success on this beauty I have no doubt you will overcome this obstacle as well! EDIT: I just noticed - 12 more posts and you will have the distinction of becoming the first non-Moderator Commodore! A worthy rank for a mariner of your stature with your fleet of mighty cottonball carrying warships nearing completion!!!

    Very nice work, Pete!

    What he said, Augie. Majestic!

    The terms are from historical records for Royal Navy ships. I recall a rather lengthy discussion on MSW 1.0 about this very topic. I'm not sure we found the definitive answer but there were some good references given!
  13. trippwj
    Very cool - thanks for sharing this!
  14. trippwj
    Augie - aren't many of us just a bit odd? Sjors - great job again!
  15. trippwj
    For some reason I am unable to fathom, my sons have always found this one quite entertaining....
  16. trippwj
    Looking good!
  17. trippwj
    You have done an amazing job on this! I am still having a tough time believing it is not much larger, Buck.

    This is truly sad news. The whole Tripp family will hold you and your family in our prayers, Suzanne. Your father provided me with much quiet encouragement and support as a new model builder, and I shall miss him.

    The SI redo plan sounds good, Sjors... Wanders off shaking his head and whistling
  20. trippwj
    What they said! WOW!!!
  21. trippwj
    Thought I heard someone say pictures...guess it is PR only just as well. Clowns training seals to use hi tech spy tools while disguised as whales...while the spiders do the rigging. Who'd a think? Looks good, Augie - my shipyard flies are on layoff during the move if you need incentive pay for the spiders!

    And that, Ms. Robbyn,is what matters most - that you like it!
  23. trippwj
    She's looking amazing, Robbyn. The paint works well with the friezes.
  24. trippwj
    I think those are corelware for cooking, Bill. I haven't seen any kits for those!
  25. trippwj
    Note that I did not bring up nuts this time!!! Sweet dreams, Sjors. Looking forward to more pictures!

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.
