    I love my Dewalt 788, very low vibration, large 20" table and I use Flying Dutchman Ultra reverse blades. Ben

    Hey AP, I don't have a copy of SR, but I can recommend Allan Yeslinskys book available from Seawatch that has both Steel and SR comparison data. In some places you will find data missing in either or even both, and many times there are differences but it is still the best reference work that I have that includes both sets of data. Ben

    Thanks all, Toni - you hit it! I intend to do just that before any more frames go in - thanks for the reminder. Greg - my Mentor gave me the same advice so I have already been compensating for creep with every square frame I put in, measuring from dead flat marks on keel to the face of every frame, changing thickness of fillers to achieve it. I've found as much as a scale inch that I've had to compensate for, room and space says they should be 4" but Ive had between 3" to 5" Ben

    Thanks for all the likes and nice comments. Two more frame pairs were added aft and now I have switched back to the forward framing. Ben

    Superb Rusty, Try Gregs advice with the white glue trick, I have used it on Pegasus and it will hide some small gaps nicely. Ben

    Simple answer is Yes, but why would you want too. Ben

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.
