    If the lower yard for either the fore or mainmast had to be lowered for repair or replacement, wouldn't a great deal of purchase be required to lift the yard back up the mast into position?

    That's quite literally a ton of books. Captain Beatty would have a field day.

    Marcus, see the below link. This is great wire for stropping blocks. The only problem is that it only comes in 24 and 28 GA. https://www.dickblick.com/products/ook-dark-annealed-specialty-wire/?clickTracking=true&wmcp=pla&wmcid=items&wmckw=33418-1024&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-4j26sbp8wIVJGpvBB2EXgJrEAQYAyABEgI9S_D_BwE

    I wish ours were bare, we still have about 50% of the leaves left in the trees. We'll be racking and mulching till Thanksgiving if snow doesn't stop us first.

    Ilhan, great to hear from you, beautiful work as always.

    Pat, does this image help?
  29. Keith Black
    Roger, nice detail on the subassembly. The hull is really starting to come together. Did you lose some fruit trees out back this year?

    Mark, don't know if you've seen the link below. I came across it last night doing research and thought it would interest you, http://navalwarcollegemuseum.blogspot.com/2014/04/artifact-spotlight-ship-model-of-uss.html

    Eberhard, everything is so beautifully executed but the forecastle decking is especially stunning and all at 1:160.
  32. Keith Black
    Looks good, Lynn. You'll be painting the hull before you know it.
  33. Keith Black
    Adam, I admire your determination. Keep up the good fight, you'll get there.
  34. Keith Black
    Adam, welcome to MSW. Good to have you aboard and it's neat that you're discovered your passion for galleons.
  35. Keith Black
    Lynn, take your time, you'll get there and it'll be marvelous.

    Lynn, if you have a small stiff brush (a toothbrush will kinda work though it's really not stiff enough) you'll want to occasionally clean the fiber build up between file's teeth so as not to impede the cutting process.

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.
