    So on with the build. This is Plan A and Plan B. Plan A is to use the lap joint parts. Unfortunately, this is the one thing I struggle with the most; final shaping or removing material from parts without causing serious problems like rounded edges, rounded surfaces, changing the shape, etc... Its the one reason I haven't been able to do a scratch build. So I need to figure out what method to use and take my sweet time doing it. If all else fails, Plan B is the other parts provided. On another note, I like that the tabs holding the parts on are nice and small. Its very easy to remove the parts and clean up the tab remnants. Seems like most kits have a giant chunk of wood in multiple places holding the parts on.

    I received my kit yesterday and allowed the wood to acclimate to my extra dry environment. Here are some pictures of the kit contents. There is a lot more wood than I expected. I do like the look of the Alaskan yellow cedar. It has a nice grain to it.

    Hi Trent. Welcome to MSW. You've come to the right place for guidance. Take a look through the build logs section and you'll find a few on the HMS Agamemnon.

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.
