    Hi Ken: I am building the Model Shipways Rattlesnake and have really been struggling trying to visualize the bow details that must be carved for the head rails and potty, etc. I am a recently retired engineer who has always been very successful at interpreting plans and bringing them to completion, but I was having a tough time until I saw your excellent build log on your version of the Rattlesnake. I can finally understand what I need to do and must remove and redo the upper cheeks I have installed, but so what. I just want to say thanks for all the effort you put into your excellent build log and I have found it very helpful. Take care, Pete. PS Very impressed with your custom wood types you added to your build. You really do beautiful work!!

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.
