    Mark, Have you tried cleaning with a wire brush in your favourite rotary tool? I find this the best way to get a clean bright finish on the brass prior to pickling in vinegar. I used this also on the refurbishment job I'm doing at the moment, and it worked really well.

    Wait til you see the Syren line - you won't believe the difference!

    Nice to see some progress on the ECB, Wayne. Looking very nice.

    Glad to hear you're back on speaking terms! Changing your rigging line is one upgrade you will definitely not regret. It will save you a lot of heartache and your model will look better for it. I can't recommend Chuck's Syren line highly enough.

    Phill, Bad luck on the breakage - we've all been there. Take your time and sneak up on it. Sometimes it takes two or three "cycles" of soaking, bending, drying, to achieve the aim. When you've painted the cabin, just try to scrape off a little paint where you glue things. It doesn't have to be an exact science, but if you can get a wood to wood bond, it will be a lot stronger.

    Fabulous Glenn!

    Very nicely done Mark. You've got a very nice looking rear end!

    Lovely piece of joinery there Danny.

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.
