    Ad Infinitum, for sure. My wife, of education, can attest that I am a poor speller. However, the Iphone is little help. Spell Correct - PLEASE!! I’d be saying much worse or wronger things, if I relied on that. Not, ad-nauseam, though. I never tire of this stuff.

  28. Hubac's Historian
    Gaetan, this is a work of spectacular complexity and execution. Your chaloupes are so elegantly constructed; they are ship models unto themselves. The ship stoves are of particular interest to me. Thank you for taking so many good photos of them. Would the basic structure of these stoves have been more or less the same in the 17th Century? For his St. Philippe, Lemineur shows two smaller stoves between the middle deck guns, at the bow. For my Soleil Royal, it only makes sense for there to be a larger stove, perhaps with two separate cooking bays, in the c

    Ingenious - I love it!
  31. Hubac's Historian
    This is all very impressive, Mike.
  32. Hubac's Historian
    Thank you for your thoughtful reply, Tom.
  33. Hubac's Historian
    Great prep and early construction progress, Tom! In thinking about this method, I was wondering about grain selection for the various lifts - particularly the bottom lift. Most of the poplar stock you have shown appears to be rift-sawn. I wonder, though, whether it may he particularly advantageous to use quarter-sawn stock for the first lift because you won’t be cutting out the middle. Do you find that the relative stability of poplar negates this consideration?

    CCoyle could not have said it better.
  35. Hubac's Historian
    This is just some beautiful work you are doing, here, Ondras.
  36. Hubac's Historian
    You know, I just marvel at the fact that even the parts of the model that aren’t to be seen - in the end - can be looked at freely.

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.
