    Hi The model is 1/16th scale so the nails would be about 24ga or there abouts I think. Just checked back with Modelexpo and they now have them on their end of the month sale list for 2.5 cents each. Much more reasonable price and I went ahead and ordered what I need. These nails are 1/2" long and the shank is between .02 and .03" in size so they should be about right.

    Just a question for the forum members. Does anyone know where to obtain photo etched nails and roves? Modelexpo has them but the cost is very high and it takes them a month to send them out. I can make them but would rather spend my time building.

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.
