John, I suggest you contact Jim Byrnes directly with your questions, either through his website or PM from here as he is a member here. Then again, he may see your post and respond directly anyway. Good luck with re-starting your modelling career - you have some mighty fine tools to help you get going!

1/10-scale Japanese Fishing Boat kit from Thermal Studios
gjdale replied to catopower's topic in Wood ship model kits
Congratulations Clare, looks to be a real beauty. -
That's good advice from Jim, and is exactly what I did. I can say though, that regardless of the shipping/import costs, these machines are worth every cent paid. "Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten!"

Thanks for the extra info Keith.
-
Some great ideas there Keith. I particularly like the blade-changing locking mechanism. I may very well have a crack at copying that idea myself!
-
That would seem a wise move at this stage Kevin. Looking forward to seeing more of your Bismarck.

Boats are looking terrific with the addition of that amount of detail John. Great work mate!

Congratulations Mobbsie! What a stunning looking final model. You've done an excellent job on her my friend. Looking forward to seeing her in the display case she deserves. I'm still a few weeks behind you at the moment, so you've probably got time to finish two or three more builds before I catch up!

Great progress Cathead, she's looking great. I'd go with making your own windows and doors. It might take longer, but will be more satisfying in the end and hey, it's not a race after all. Just my AUD $0.002 (at an appalling exchange rate!)

And another Happy Birthday from me too Augie. Hope your feeling better.

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.
