    Greg thank you so much for the kind words; although continuing to impress you will be tough indeed. 😀 Ian

    Thanks so much Rusty. It is a very interesting build and I am really enjoying it.

    Really nice explanation of how you made the windows. I remember that same challenge with my Haying Hoy. Now I am configuring the windows using cnc which should do a good job. The biggest obstacle is figuring out how to get a good enough bitmap and then converting that to vectors. I really like your project. Ian

    Thank you billocrates, Mikki, Cisco, and Sfotinos for your overly generous praise. I know that there are lots of mistakes but hopefully not too noticeable. Ian

    So a little bit of progress. I’m going pause work until the next chapter has arrived. As you can see I decided to partially plank the port side and fully plank the other side. This is how I did my Hayling Hoy and I really liked the effect. I know I’ve made more work for myself because now I will have to plank the corresponding insides. Lining the hull into 3 sections: Laying the Garboard strake: Lining out the rest of the hull: Half way there: Finished starboard side: From the bow: Port side finished: Treenailed with 25lb monofilament: Notice how translucent Holley is. You can see the frames through the hull. If I turn off the overhead light you can’t see the frames anymore. 5/32 Cap rails installed. Inside faired: Cheers all, Ian

    Great work Tom! Your project has given me some ideas for my Gokstadt. Could I ask what you used for the hinges and clasps for your sea chests? The benches are the one thing I never got around to. ian

    Such nice clean work Rusty. I am going to slow down so I can benefit from your excellent work. Ian

    Nice steady accurate work. It will pay off as you move ahead. Ian

    Looking very good Mikki. The walnut is going to make it great. Ian

    Nicely done Steve! Ian

    Very nice job and something to be proud of! Ian

    Paul this build is just beautiful, such clean and crisp work!

    Thanks very much Rick and thanks to everyone for the likes! I forgot to mention that I’m not going to tackle the inner hull fairing until I’ve planked the hull because then I have a nice flat surface onto which I can rest the topside.

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.
