    Thank you very much Mark, I wish the same. So in the new year, I measured the Topmast shrouds..🙂 Tied up temporarily. Topmast will be removed..

    Thank you very much Kirill. Definitely useful for many modelers! Another component. Removable loading hoist "Stay tackle".. It was nicely discussed here by modeler Mati and the author of the book "The ships of Abel Tasman" Ab Hoving. https://shipsofscale.com/sosforums/threads/pinnace-papegojan-1627-1-48-completed-build.7055/page-2#post-159810 On the last day of the year, I wish all modelers a lot of peace in their construction, personal well-being and, most importantly, health until 2026.

    Thank you very much Ronaldo. Thanks for the like. Lower Ratlines finished..🔥 Next is the Catharpins component, seen from the William Rex ship model..

    Bottom Ratlines strung..🔥 ..compare again, glue the end knots and cut..🙂 Measurement by the figure of a sailor.. Sometimes a rung had to be replaced.. This is how Ratlines are knitted on the replica "De Witte Swaen"..💥 At 6:00 minutes...
  26. Ondras71
    Bowsprit equipped with blocks.. Ready and tight Stays.. Added Ratlines metal crossbar (Futtock stave).. Ratlines knot tying begins..
  27. Ondras71
    Deadeyes on Shrouds tied to clean..🔥 Ratlines tying templates ready..
  28. Ondras71
    I continue tying the deadeyes. Mizzen mast..🔥 After measuring and tying the deadeyes to the shrouds, I glued the masts.. "Tackle" and Deadeyes tied cleanly. Just need to adjust the height..💥
  29. Ondras71
    Hello Johann. Thank you for the compliment. I admit that I didn't recognize the groove, I only saw a thick line. The groove is really needed!!🔥 Hello Bella. Did you mean this crossing of blocks? Fortunately, the distances are fine.💥 Before gluing the masts, I tied the boat up, as Kirill had pointed out. I put in a thicker rope and immediately created smaller deadeyes.. All sizes created by me.. Deadeyes of the foremast measured..
  30. Ondras71
    This is how I tie the Deadeyes to the main Shrouds. Due to the different distances between the upper and lower Deadeye, I used the system that modeler "archjofo" uses when building his beautiful rigs. It is a log with a diameter of Deadeyes, which is at the correct height even with different inclinations of Shrouds..👍 Then another binding.. Result ok..💥
  31. Ondras71
    Thanks Kirill. Now with the installation of additional ropes, the boat rope really seems weak to me. I plan to install stronger ones.. Hello Bela. Due to the poor plan, I am still working on these things during the installation to make the result look believable. Thanks for the timely warning.. Thank you Marsalv. I have a good teacher...👍

    As I reported, I enjoyed a weekend in Sweden with the main goal, the Vasa Museum. https://www.vasamuseet.se/cs I had been preparing for this for about 40 years and it was worth it. When I arrived, my watch reported increased blood pressure and heart rate... I spent over 4 hours here, I could have stayed longer, but I took into account the company of my son. I walked around the ship several times and compared the beams and planks with the strips from which we model them... Having the ship about three meters away from each other is unreal. I tried to look at and photograph every detail. Simply indescribable, at the end a very long viewing with contemplation..🔥 I've made some progress on the boat. Front and main tackle finished, I'm tuning the Stays and the Schrouds are waiting for me..

    Thank you very much Ab and Kirill. I have been making tackle pulley halters for a long time. I chose a system of tying and gluing the tapered ends of the cables.. Now I'm already preparing for a weekend trip to see this beauty..🔥😍 https://www.vasamuseet.se/cs
  34. Ondras71
    The set of all blocks for the ship is complete.. Hooks for Tackle blocks made..
  35. Ondras71
    I'm continuing on blocks..🔥 Last batch of 3 mm size.. Gradual waxing...

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.
