    Don't you need an emergency stop button, or on/of swith for the crane? I love those added details by way of the decals.

    Very nice kit. Looks like fun to build

    An impressive build, moving over to the new forum hasn't done her any damage. Lovely details added and made

    A few more steps and you have them a runnin' synchronous.

    Sarah, I was already wondering when this 'babe' got back on line. You are making some wonderfull improvements. You are bashing along just nicely. Love what you're doing, even the duckling - so cute that funnel of yours ... very, very, very well done! Maybe I should start using nailpolish? Inventive not to say the least

    Garward, Seeing her grow like this again ... amazing. There is so much to see - I even forgot about those splendid quarter windows.

    Sam, I forgot about your inventive mind ... That scupper drill jig ... great. The cap rail, now that I see it again ... wonderful job. It will be fun to watch her grow under your hands

    A job well done indeed on the dragon head. I have to agree with you on the poor look of it in the kit. It seems every kit needs bashing ...

    JP, Can't see why you should have any problems finishing the planking, the way you are at it. I found the garboard strake rather simple, compared to the rest of the planking. It runs in a straight line from fore to aft. If you start bending it, you're on the wrong path. I see that Russ is lending you his ear and giving advice, so you'll be in safe hands!

    Not much saw dust, but your masts are looking good Remco

    Jason, Can't recall to well, but didn't you made a jig for the curvature of the racks/hatches, or is my rotten memory playing tricks on me ...

    Jason, What a tremendous improvements you could have made for your own feeling if it had!!! E.g. no glue on the coppering ...

    Had to think about this when I read you response: Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday I read in some naval novel that the sea had 'white horses' ... Are those the white 'caps' on the swells?

    Popeye, Thought you'd never come back You got me wurryin'

    Jason, Good to see her back online! Would be a pitty not having your build log back.

    Marvelous Michael. Lucky you, you've got the space for it. Maybe more cramped builders should order their ropes at 'Mott's Rope Co Pty'

    Trip, How come that some people just know ...

    Mihai, That's a pitty. Good I remembered. I tend to save to much, but as it turns out, it seems I didn't save enough.

    Michael, You should take a look at this guys log, if Walter let's you ... It's amazing - unfortunately in Polish, which I don't speak (do you?), sometimes pictures say more than words ... http://www.koga.net.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=26364&start=160

    Michael, It just hit me (unconsious ) , can't you make a kin of feed to the 'tripple' side, as to lengthen the rope ...? Have a look at this man's log, it's Polish and I can't read it, but he's a genious: http://www.koga.net.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=26364&start=160 Actually, look at his entire log. It is AMAZING

    can't wait. Looking forward to that. If you succeed and you pop over to Europe, you're welcome here, I'll get you French duck for dinner, with fried potatoes and green beans with tomatoo sauce ..., h*ll I'll even put in a lemon cheese cake for desert

    Walter ...

    You've been working on the standing rigging. It truely looks very, very good. The change from glossy to mat black on your mast was a vast improvement to. You should have shown some pictures to help future builds.
  24. cog
    You are full of surprises!!! Not just shrink, and grow back to normal proportions, but improve, improve, improve .... Thanks Michael, you've got some style!!!

    Mihai, Dear friend, it is good to see you back here. I missed your wounderful log. Glad to see you coming up to speed. I'll be 'tacking' along again, and see how you fare.

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.
