    Here are some photos. I am just curious about there quality. As I have a Burnes table saw and a Unimat 3 I don't see me buying them but if they ate good I would recommend them to new modellers.

    I am sure many of you have seen these ads showing micro lathes, milling Machines and table saws. Has anyone tried to buy one of these? I don't really trust these sites so I am wondering if they are legit and do you get something that is good quality.

    Thanks for answering my questions. It really does look to be a good kit. I am building a scratch built 1/24 scale cross section of the Granado and a fully framed hull POF model is very tempting.

    The kit looks great but I have friends who have been burned by Chinese made kits before. The parts didn't fit well, the wood quality was poor and warped plus instructions were horrible. This is why I am reluctant to purchase Chinese kits. From the photos the kits does look good. Are CAF kits of a high quality? I would like to buy one and I like the idea of buying it in sections but as I said I am a bit skittish about Chinese kits.

    I was just wondering about the quality of CAF kits. Are they worth buying?

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.
