    Nice planking and workshop If I remember correctly when planking my Vasa . Indeed. Some more filler blocks between the front and rear frames would have been easier to apply the planks. And will give more support when sanding I did this on my 2nd wooden model Indeed "overdone" but planking in 1 layer works much easier after doing this

    Nice work Steven Tell your wife what you are going to do. Women are very good at remembering what their husbands have to do. The only disadvantage : Do this, do that, do this, do that (all day long) 😂

    Fortunately, I also like wine 👍 Corona : A weird little creature, with annoying side effects. Stay as far away from it as possible. That is the best advice I can give.

    Covid 19...We've had that here too. Indeed, you have no energy, don't feel like doing anything, nothing tastes good After 5 months, beer still tastes bad to me, it even stinks sometimes ... Can you imagine.. A Belgian who no longer likes drinking beer I hope you soon recover completely and nice work on the plane

    The file of the picture is too large. If you reduce this, the problem is solved

    Indeed, looks very good. Thanks for the advice Michael 👍. I did not use Gorilla CA gel, but CA gel from another brand (Pattex, easier to get in this part of the world). I was a bit skeptical about this fancy plastic bottle at first. But with the 2 "squeezers" on the side, dosing is very easy. no hassle with needles or toothpicks. Just a little squeeze and always the right dose in the right place. The thin polyester thread is also lightly treated with the Tamya glue . Schrouds in place. Ratlines, The Model shipways Mayflower instruction (so much better dan the instructions with the Billings Vasa.) Very helpful to me, now I finally understand what clove hitches are... Ratline spacing. 7.5 mm at scale 1/45 is about 33.7cm in reality here they found 12" to 15" Start "Ratlining" Knotted, glued, cut, and lightly treated with diluted matte black Result Thanks for following, comments and likes

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.
