The CONFERENCE Check out the Conference details on the NRG website. There are some great speakers, Interesting tours, Technical modeling sessions, and much more. I think you will recognize many of the speakers from right here on MSW. I am looking forward to it very much...especially seeing the CSS Hunley http://www.thenrg.org/2013-nrg-charleston-conference-details.php THE HOTEL The Crowne Plaza Charleston Conference Hotel will be home base for the Conference. We have arranged a great room rate of $109 for singles and $119 for doubles – the low room rates include the morning Breakfast Buffet. We have arranged for these great room rates to be available for three days before and after the event for those wanting to extend their time in Charleston. The hotel has free airport shuttle and their shuttle will also take us to and from some of the 30+ restaurants in the immediate area, though the food at the hotel is both good and affordable. The hotel is adjacent to the large Tangier Outlet Mall where bargains abound and the hotel’s shuttle will be available to and from the Mall. Let me know if you have any questions. Chuck NRG Director

Posting etiquette
Chuck replied to dvm27's topic in How to use the MSW forum - **NO MODELING CONTENT**
Its fine as long as the original log author doesnt want to. If that happens I would ask any original log author to contact. It shouldnt be an issue though as most cases it is in response to a request for help and opinions. Should a log owner not want any...then they shouldnt ask. But we will handle it on a case by case basis and I really dont think there will any issues. Chuck -
Question about mast angle/length on phantom build
Chuck replied to kdnash's topic in Masting, rigging and sails
1/2" is good enough. The rigging will hold the mast in place just as it did on teh real ship. Use teh plans to get teh final measurement with the addition of the 1/2" for the hole. Chuck -

Try the The 20-Gun Ship Blandford Peter Goodwin.... See this link http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-20-Gun-Ship-Blandford-Peter-Goodwin-1988-Royal-Navy-Model-Ships-Frigates-/200812419882?pt=US_Nonfiction_Book&hash=item2ec15a5b2a Chuck

That is the thinnest argument I ever read ....a pdf saved on a CD is not software. Its a document on CD. No programming what-so-ever. My 12 year old can save a PDF to a flash drive. That doesnt mean she is a programmer and the flash drive magically becomes a software package. To anyone with a little common sense, the argument was fabricated to drive up sales and nothing else. From what I understand...he is now offering a print version of the practicums...I guess that should be considered a new type of software as he is trying to make the same restrictions apply. Its just not right. Just my opinion. Chuck

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.
