    So sorry. Steve

    That looks really well done. Steve

    So cool. Can't wait to see Syren's version of the longboat! Steve

    Looking forward to more progress! Steve

    Thanks B.E.! I will not be creating an additional jig. I don't think I'll need it. Fairing is next. Steve

    Thanks guys! All the bulkheads are squared and braced with wood strips. This is absolutely necessary. The squaring process was more difficult with this one than with the longboat due to the amount of thin bulkheads. I'd say they're about 98% square. The filler pieces and transom have not been added yet. In the photo there is a 1/16" x 1/16" strip that will be used to shim the bulkheads where they meet the bearding line at the stern. Steve

    Echoing the above comments, Mike. Try a trophy shop for the nameplate. Steve

    The hull is looking good. I would change the font on your settings though so it's easier to read your post. Steve
  19. Tigersteve
    Me too! Steve

    Karl, Your model is looking great. Good to see it again. Steve

    The false keel, keel, and stem were glued on top of a piece of glass. There was a slight space between the stem and keel. I added a small bead of glue to seal the gap. Squaring the bulkheads is next. Steve

    Good idea on the brushes. Steve

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.
