    Glen, the ship is a little beauty. I love the sails, they turned out great and hang well from the yards.

    Brian, what a great piece of lumber for the base. The live edge is reminiscent of the rough muddy banks of the rivers the Cairo patrolled.

    Sorry, Nic. I was thinking back of the end zone to the back of the end zone for 360 feet but duh, I needed to add another two fields to the total. Dang, that's a lot of line.

    Right at a football field length of line. I'm impressed!

    Glen, you always get stage fright at about this point in you SIB builds and they always turn out great. Just relax and breathe through your eyelids.

    Chuck, welcome to MSW. Wishing you the best with your first build and please create a build log when you start your build. Glad to have you aboard.

    Brian, the second you say "digital reattachment" in a discussion with your wife about purchasing a Byrnes saw will be the last second of the conversation.

    You recovered better than TCU.

    And we've gotten to watch!

    Seems reasonable. https://www.amazon.com/Xuron-440-High-Precision-Scissor/dp/B00175X4CI/ref=asc_df_B00175X4CI/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310828259700&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8400442552790186348&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9017392&hvtargid=pla-569148348440&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=65583250281&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=310828259700&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8400442552790186348&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9017392&hvtargid=pla-569148348440

    Lyle, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.

    As a matter of fact we have. I wouldn't say nothing wouldn't true even though Mom liked you best.

    Was It a stern cannon port? Without proper research one could certainly go astray trusting a model manufacture. Here is the stern view of Model Shipways Rattlesnake.

    Dave, curious question. Why did you leave the center window blank?
  23. Keith Black
    You've got this, Tom. I'm sure your template will work out splendidly.

    Glen, have you considered rice paper? I'm considering using it for the sails for Amelia. https://www.hobbylobby.com/Art-Supplies/Drawing-Illustration/Calligraphy/Rice-Paper-Roll/p/10121?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIicb-8dPO-wIVGv_jBx07VQFKEAQYAyABEgLXb_D_BwE

    Eric, have you thought about putting a dry well in where you hang your deer? It would allow the blood to soak into the ground deeper and when you wash up the runoff doesn't run everywhere.

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.
