All of the bulkheads were removed from their sheets and dropped into position on the former, no adjustments were needed to any of them to make them fit! No glue has been used so far and you can see the longitudinal stiffeners being installed - fore sections first and then the aft ones, after these clipped into place with a little persuasion the entire structure has really begun to get more solid. More bulkhead and stiffner work to come before glue goes anywhere near it.

The box you see is laser etched with a drawing of the ship along with the serial number of the kit, my kit is B0001 as it’s a prototype. This box contains Chapter 1 of the model which comprises all of the main hull structure and jigs, the box weighed in at a hefty 29lbs, you can see more pics of some of the contents, also this kit will have framing of Swiss pear and I will be planking in Boxwood ( planking material not included with the kit just like the Winnie ). Everything is very well packed and protected and the quality of the materials and laser cutting is superb.

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.
