    Hello all! I set the Greyhound aside for a while for various personal life reasons, but I have at last returned. Although I may not have responded to them all, I'm grateful to all those who gave me advice on the ship. Here is what has happened since. 

     

    I decided to strip the wrongly-applied planks near the keel. In the process, I did an excellent job of razor-blading my ring finger, on which I now have a scar. Ah well... I know better now. At any rate, I successfully removed the wood with minimal damage to the ship.

    Tonight, I applied the first new plank to the ship in roughly two years. It has gone on smoothy. God willing, I will have some 30 planks to go until I've finished the most difficult part of this ship. Of course, I know in my heart that the most difficult part is always the next part.IMG_9620.thumb.jpeg.e15a9a81d3f5b58905750f19449ab63d.jpeg

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.
