    Hello Hank, your article on the shed caught my eye right away today. I'm about to move into my "retirement house" and it has a 10X16 shed in the back yard that has the riding lawnmower.  That's about ready to be moved to another shed, and my model workshop will be ready to move into.  After years of working at the dining room table, I'll finally have a home!!!  Right now, the shed has an extension cord running to it for lights, but I'm going to dig a trench and run a regular power line and breaker box to it.  I'm going to take a page out of your book and post photos along the way.  Thank you for sharing your story.

      Paul,

      Gosh, you mean I actually did something RIGHT, this time!!!!????? LOL!!!

      Thanks for the kind remarks and good luck on your shop project - YES - DO POST it as you go along. The shed I began with was really in sad shape and I think I may have spent way too much on renovations, but....what's in progress needs to be completed, so full steam ahead! I hope your shed is in better physical condition that what I started with.

      Sorry for the delay in responding,  but we have been moving into the new house. The shed/barn for the riding lawn Moore has been dubbed by my wife as the hobby shop and all my work is been consigned to that 1 area. Thankfully it's pretty good size. Now my question is whether to buy a tall chair and use the existing work bench which I'd have to put a top on, or simply buy a used office desk with some organizers on top. Any suggestions?

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.
