    This will be the largest model I will ever make. A little smaller would have been more manageable. But yeah, why not 😇

    A new building slip and start planking between wale 1 and 2. The aim of the new building slip is to give the model good support and to keep it fully accessible. The result is a bit big and unwieldy. But solid Align the front and back with the laser. The 1st wale did not have a smooth line here and there. In these places the glue has been loosened with isopropyl alcohol and adjusted Measure whether the dimensions match the cross-sections. Only 1mm difference here and there Start further planking. The intention is to do 2 strakes and maybe the 2nd wale. This will then serve as a basis to replace all the plywood with wooden frames. The first plank lots of clamping... Flags, did a first testprint on tissue paper. And no, the Dutch VOC flag is not for the Mary Rose Thanks for following

    ratlines. getting started is always an exciting experience. But after a while it can get boring. I would start already, then you can do something else in between if you get tired of it 😉

    After a day of sanding in the sun, the lower part of the hull is sanded. Also the keel and stem are tapered. All the screws holding Mary Rose upside down have been removed. And i gave her a cleaning with compressed air. The keel is tapered using the cross-sectional drawings. A bit straighter than the original... Since there is little left of the stem. it was a bit of free interpretation. And Mary Rose landed on her feet (oops, keel). Now the build slip needs to be adjusted before continuing Thanks for following, likes and comments.

    The planking of the lower hull part is ready. This morning everything is made ready for sanding and scraping. In the meantime I did the garden, washed the cars and did other small jobs (the regular Saturday work..) result. am quite happy with this special plank at the stern. Now there is first a "quality check". Then the sanding is continued and the keel will be tapered. Thanks for comments, likes or just visiting this build, this is very much appreciated.

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.
