    Nigel, Nicely done. You've got the 'Igor-way' well executed!!! Cheers,

    Christian, It sounds interesting ... should polish up my French ... haven't read a book in it for ages, and my naval, and carpenter knowledge isn't up to scratch either (in French that is)

    Stunning, Johann ... Es ist ja wunderbar ...
  4. cog
    Very nice detail, Antanas. Well done on the transome. Just another extra challenge ... you encountered
  5. cog
    Than ... I've got a DIY possibility ... or 2 That is, after you've got that proxxon back ... Cheers

    Looks fabulous Jon. Can imagine the rear admirals aproved! How couldn't they ...!

    Piet, You could try, what is called here a 'hanging drill'. Should fit your hand, and is easy on your piece to maneuver, stands on your workbench. Juwelers use it a lot ...

    Nice job Mick.
  9. cog
    Bob, Could you, perhaps, clarify that for me ... Cheers

    Congratulations, Ed. A milestone reached in time it seems. It certainly looks very, very tempting ... Cheers

    Mick, You could use the stern after it is finished for the 'lovely bum' thumbnail ... Besides, it sounds better than Mick " moon face" yamsterman ... Davy Jones' locker will fill up rather quickly this way, mate ... I wonder whether DJ knows his way around a tablet ... he'll go digital ... whatch out RN Cheers

    Mick, If you tackle the transomes like you did the 'spine', you'll end up with a lovely 'bum' to look at ... cannot wait to see the result ... Cheers mate

    Piet, You do not merely try ... so far you succeeded rather well (putting it mildly...), as most will agree with me!
  14. cog
    Hmmm, did you sleep at all. That's quite some work you've done. She looks very impressive
  15. cog
    If those few items are the tools of your current trade, than, you are doing an awesome job, Piet.

    I recon it will be stale when I get there mate, but it's the thought that counts, so I highly appreciate the offer ... I'm sorry to miss it, first a lovely steak, followed by cake ... yummie - I'll keep it mind though

    That's a clear show of building a small boat Igor. Yours? If so well done, else for the other person my compliments
  18. cog
    Piet, Nice going. To me it seems very good. I found some who did the blocks himself (Polish bloke) if you want to have a look, this is the link http://www.koga.net.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=26364&start=180#p37159 to the post

    Nice build ... the admiral's I presume ... how long to finish, or already finished ... ???
  20. cog
    Ken, So far very impressive. I read somewhere builders reinforce the joins by adding paper behind it, if they're afraid the 'lip' is to small. ... i found this in my howto's for the interested paperbuild.howto..pdf
  21. cog
    What method might that be Igor the Great !?!?!? :im Not Worthy:
  22. cog
    I'll be visiting your log more frequent to avoid mistakes I already made ... Now this rally really was a challenge
  23. cog
    Jason, I think Nigel has said it all ... Now 'go for it'
  24. cog
    Happy birthday from a rainy Empe Dennis. Hope you have a swell day. Give my congratulations to your Admiral for having you reach this age ;-)
  25. cog
    You are going to needsome thicker wood, Jason ... or live with the straight sternpost, which - knowing you - won't do ...

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.
