Hi Anja and Sjors, Thanks for stopping by. We are not building a new house.....we are moving to a smaller one and it needs some work. It is the same age as the one we are selling. As for the glass....it is not wine, it is Kentucky Ale. It is so good I just decided to use a wine glass to savor it. And yes, there is a danger of early christening... ! On another note, I am watching your builds, just trying to stay out of the controversy :D . Cheers, Jim

This section depicts the rear rail work. I was not able to use the included wirw as it was too stiff and would not hold a bend, breaking the posts. The wire shown was from a local craft store, used for making jewelry.

The preceding series is where I was early in 2012...I'll try and not be redundant. If you have any questions about the build , I'll try to answer them. Sure miss the comments and dialogue that were part of the build! Jim

Hi Anja, Tylmo.. Yes Anja, I'll post some pictures of my new shop but it wont be until June or July. We are renting a house while some remodeling is being done on our new purchase. Thanks for stopping by. Tylmo, The loss of the photos on the site were a reminder to back up my home system. Ironically, while I was not able to work on my project, I had gone through all my pics from my HMS Victory Bow section and deleted all but the completed photos from my laptop, thinking they would always be on this site. I had not started cleaning up the Robt E Lee when the crash happened but somehow all my 2011 shots disappeared. I'll try to put up some of what I do have left. Cheers, Jim

Hi Grant, Frank, Tylmo, Thanks for stopping by. I'm still sorting out my tools and such for our move so it'll be a while before any more pics are up. Seems I have also misplaced 2011 on my laptop. I do stilll have virtually all of my posts, sans dialogue, for 2012 but none from 2011! And that was when I started the project. Also have my completed pics of the HMS Victory bow cutaway but I'm not sure if they're worth re-posting. As soon as I have a place, I hope to get back into modeling....completing the Rob't E Lee and starting work on the Bluejacket version of the Lackawanna. One thing that will hold up my next ship is the building of a stagecoach....Wells Fargo...Victory Models, that my wife got me for Christmas. Do you think I could post that here? After all, it was a 'ship of the prairie'......... Cheers, Jim

Thanks Sjors! My Princess plans on some remodeling in the new house....... so it may be a while before I get building again. But it does appear that I may be assigned a small room for my very own shipyard.... Jim

As soon as I figure out the new process, I'll try to rebuild my log. Seems like an eternity since I last worked on it....about the 20th of December, 2012. Been a lot of things going on but I hope to finish all the final touches by the end of March. We are selling our house and moving so it looks like another few weeks before I can do much other than rebuild the log. Got virtually all the pictures but none of the interesting comments and suggestions.....Oh well. This does provide a great opportunity to not include the ugly stuff....

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.
