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.
proxxon dh40. sander ?

Hi Mike,
I work with a special type of wood which is sensitive to ripping.
I have not found a thickness sander with automatic feed which can be adjusted as finely as the proxxon.
I asked the question because I had lots of ripping. Since then I found one of the knives was very damaged. I have turned it around after things were much better. I do see longitudinal stripes on the piece after planing, so I suspect one of the knives is not touching the surface. I guess I have to adjust the knife more precisely so both knives interface.
Any tricks for this? The manual is a bit sparse on advice!
I feel I may get it right and indeed dust wise this is much better!
Thanks for your input!
Berent.
