    I have not done a build log. I do have photos I have taken up to this point. Just finished planking and getting ready to build the internal ribs. I also made the various buckets and tubs while waiting for the planks to set up. I keep referring to your build which along with the instruction book really help. Thanks for the compas rose idea.

    Beautiful job!! Where did you get the compass rose? I am in the process of building this.

    I am in the process of building "Dark Harbor". Could you tell me what you used for the bronze port holes? Thanks, Patrick

    Did you ever finish Pilar? I am thinking about looking for a Constructo kit. Patrick

    Thanks so much for posting your building log. I am just beginning the same model I recently purchased that was purchased by somebody else 25 years ago. The instructions are not bad but do not go into any detail. Seeing your steps creates a lot of clarity.

    As a new member, I am thrilled and inspired to find this thread. Just starting my Lightning build. One question at this time regarding your photos of hull #1. Just in front of the belaying pins on the deck, there appear to be three mahogany wedges of some sort. Do you know what their purpose was? Thanks again for sharing the steps you took and including such detailed photos. Patrick

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.
