Popeye and Elia, It's 1/64 plywood alright and a pain in the backside to work with, the only good thing is the edges sand "fast" sometimes too fast. I still need to work the overall height down just to make sure the top is level and square. Cheers, Tim

Greetings, Here are some photos from tonights work (victory), I have to say I've been pulling out what little hair I have left over these spray shields! The plywood supplied for the spray shields, is paper thin and somewhat hard to work with. It took me three times of cutting, shaping, sanding and gluing to get them relatively close to correct. Up to this point they have been the toughest item to get right! I hope to get more work in now that I've figured out the best way to work with the plywood (Cut it with a pair of scissors). Cheers, Tim

Fantastic! I have to agree with druxey, rounding off the corners of the hatch would ruin your great workmanship! Tim

Hi Michael, It's been a while since I checked in on your build, "Looking Good".... I have a quick question for you! I wos wondering if there is any reason you ended all the planks on the same bulkhead? Cheers, Tim

Hi Marty, I'll be bringing the half hull of the Atlantic. The PT is going slow right now, I havn't been doing as much work on it as the half hull. See you Saturday! Tim

Greetings all, With the weather the way it is here on the East coast, it sure makes for a good to work on the models. No snow here, but from the football games on Television some ares are getting hit pretty hard. Only rain and wind for Virginia Beach. Here are some photos after todays work, enjoy! Cheers, Tim

Tonight was a good night, I was able to get a couple more hours work in on the Atlantic hull. She's finally beginning to take shape and look like a schooner! Cheers, Tim
-
I did manage to get a little model work in today, every little bit helps. A few more shots to show how the work on the hull is progressing. Cheers, Tim

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.
