    Thanks for rebuilding the log. I've been wondering how you are doing with your build.

    You'll do fine CaptainSteve. Keep in mind that the Conny is only my second build. If i can do it, you can do it.

    Good to see you have your build log back up and running. Marc - .035 rivets are the recommended size.

    Good to see your build log back up. I couldn't help but notice that big blue box the model came in. I guess Model Shipways has switched to some new packing. I bought the Sopwith Camel airplane model kit from them a week ago and it came in the same type of box.

    I used copper plates from Caldercraft. I tried using the copper tape but had a difficult time with it and just ended up making a mess.

    All of my hand tools have a purpose in life but my tweezers and magnifying headgear are a must have for me.

    Well done Jim. Looks like a professional job to me.

    Thanks for watching. I'm glad I saved all the pictures which is not something I normally do. There will be another update in a couple of days. I finished the head rails on the other side, installed the gratings and toilets, and I'm now working on planking above the head rails.

    Ed, I just started reading this book yesterday and finished the first two chapters. I will post any comments I have after I finish.

    I will pick up where my previous build log left off here. Unfortunately, I won't have time to reconstruct my previous posts.

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.
