I did all the hull planking the “hard way” spilling and cutting each piece to width. I got much better and quicker at it as I went along. It is far from perfect, but I learned a great deal.

Started back in April. After cutting the Rabbet and tapering to the bearding line I used magnets and a square to align the bulkheads as I glued them to the keel.

Hello all, I’m Larry and I just joined a few days ago. Wish I had done it long ago, but the best intentions... I’m working on my third model - 1 Cape Cod Catboat from Bluejacket, 2 Bounty Launch from Model Shipways, and 3 Glad Tidings from Model Shipways. I’m hoping to find some good tips when I get stumped by some detail in the building. Can anyone tell me how to start a log for my current ship? Looking forward to meeting you all. Larry Drake

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.
