    Thanks CDW Scott

    Hi Chris, you can be sure that this site will be where the build log goes, that project is a bit down the line however! Scott

    Thanks Keith, I will check that out! Scott

    I have the Trumpeter 1/350 Warspite and am wondering what after-market photo etch upgrades are out there that are compatible with this kit. Everything I've seen is geared to the Academy version. I wonder how much trouble I will have if I use the Academy photo-etch? Thoughts? Thanks - Scott

    The case was well worth it Mike - it compliments the build so nicely! Scott

    Congratulations on a fine build Mike! Please show us the cased model when you can. Scott

    Hi Mike, it's been a long time since I dropped in on your build, wow it is looking great! I love your detailed photo narratives! Scott
  8. Haliburton
    Mike, this is coming together really nicely - great work! Scott

    Well done Per! Really nice. Congratulations - Scott

    Do these volumes and accompanying plans come with a recommended bill of materials re: wood types and quantities? This would be a far future project for me, but was curious. Scott

    Hi Mike, a great update and as Per said a really well done tutorial on how you use the dividers. Scott

    Very nice, congratulations Pierre. Scott

    Nice job Derek - you should be proud. Scott

    Great info, thank you Bruce Scott

    Hi Mark, on-line, Lee Valley has a taig miniature lathe which can be bought in either a wood or metal configuration (same price). You can then buy the accessories to change the configuration depending on which one you started with. Based on your note however I wonder if this is a situation where the twig unit doesn't do either wood or metal very well. Scott

    Hee hee Nirvana

    Hi Lehman, it looks like the bed for the taig is 15 inches? Is it easy to convert wood to metal?
  18. Haliburton
    Thanks Nirvana for getting back to me - Scott
  19. Haliburton
    As I continue research on lathes I wondered if there are any experiences with the taig mini woodworking lathe on offer from lee valley? Looks like you can add a conversion kit for metal. Nirvana, is that the set-up you have? Scott

    Do you have a scroll saw? I wonder if that would be easier. Scott
  21. Haliburton
    Mike, maybe you can experiment with a different stain or a stain pen to even it out a bit, or maybe some surface sanding to lighten the dark areas? Scott
  22. Haliburton
    Hi Mike, wow you are making great progress on this. I recall in another build log some discussion about the fact that there are no oars. Are you going to scratch some up? Scott
  23. Haliburton
    Thanks very much John(s). texxan5 John, I'm still doing research but will let you know if I end up wanting to go the Proxxon route. Scott
  24. Haliburton
    Thanks Per - will check them out. Lots of positive feedback on the site for the proxxon db250 too.
  25. Haliburton
    Thanks John, what is the particular sherline model you are using?

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.
