When I built my SR, long ago. I thought it was supposed to be a bucket with "something" in it. Not really recommended to put this on your model 😉

Glueing wooden model pieces
Baker replied to Bill97's topic in Building, Framing, Planking and plating a ships hull and deck
I do indeed first give the deck a few layers of varnish (danish oil). On the places where something has to be glued later I scratch this layer away. And then glue the object there with normal wood glue. -
Nice model
-
Planking the rear of the forecastle. A part of a decorative "drain" was found at the remains of the rear castle. This probably served to drain water from the deck to the sides of the hull. So why wouldn't there be one at the forecastle? This drain was made of a solid oak tree trunk, and on the model it is built up from several layers of cherry and twisted iron wire. The drain is in place and the planks applied. Gluing plank by plank and letting it dry took a while. Planking sanded and further finishing in progress.

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.
