    Hi Rob snowy here Personally I soak all my planks for 1 to 1half hours and do just 2 a day and let them dry I too love the electric plank bender but I First cut 1 end to start then bent to shape about 5 mm apart ( depending) with the amati hand bender then glue about 150mm with mostly wood glue and dabs of superglue then work my way along in stages .I use the heat bender to run across the planks after cleaned .Frank mastini ( great book)as the reckons it heats the glue and helps the planks Cheers snowy

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.
