    Hi Popeye - many thanks for your help; yes it is a Billing, I'll give it an other try and see if it works.

    Hallo Popeye: I'm following your log with great interest because you seem to be a much accomplished and experienced builder unlike myself. My current build is also the America, I will include some photos soon. My immediate issue is with mast fittings, specifically the Jib Boom requires four sheets according to the 1:1 plan. If I drill the tip to accommodate the four eyebolts, it will crack. How did solve that issue? A mast ring with four eyelets would be nice if I could only source one. Your comments will be much appreciated. Alpentex

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.
