    Yes, this boat can be used in Le coureur. Of course, we also gave you a regular boat The difference between them is the hull

    This kind of model has existed for a long time, but it was made of plaster at that time. Now 3D printing technology can make the mold more accurate

    https://cafmodel.com/products/la-salamandre-full-rib-life-boat You can choose this boat. Its hull is also in the shape of tiles Now the price is 23$ He needs to be very careful when making. He can't use liquid quick drying glue, which can easily bond the hull and the resin mold inside We can use latex or jelly like glue。 We have improved the resin mold, now we use a whole, so its accuracy is better than the original use of splitt

    Thank you very much, chuck, Jim Thank you very much for your attention to le coureur and everyone here, It has been 11 months since I started to make Le coureur in September last year. In these 11 months, we have transformed these plans into three-dimensional models and three-dimensional models into wooden kit. This is really a very interesting work。Although the process is full of difficulties and challenges, this is the charm of the model. When we made HMS fly before, we found that the machine precision of ordinary CNC was not enough, and the influence on machining accuracy was relatively small when engraving on one side, but the error would be doubled when engraving on both sides. In coureur, there are similar parts processed on both sides, so we have purchased CNC of industrial mold to ensure the accuracy of processing parts Next, we will be working on the new kit, which will be a bigger challenge Tom

    Hello, I haven't cut my left rib yet, I'm thinking about whether I need to cut these ribs Because his ribs are quite different from salamandre's Salamandre's ribs are only 2 mm apart, so you can't see the structure clearly without cutting the ribs，But the distance between the ribs of Le coureur is big enough to see the internal structure. Of course, if you want to see the inside more clearly, you need to cut the ribs。 The other thing is how different these jagged ribs are, and I want to keep them more Of course, all of this depends on what kind of effect you need to express

    Hello ,I have bought some boxwood, but the wood is still wet and can't be cut。I think it needs to be kept until the end of this year。 I'm also looking for dry boxwood。

    Yes, the next Granado, I'll try to separate it up and down so that the structure inside will be fully displayed, And the top and bottom can be closed or separated, This is a little difficult. I hope I can succeed https://modelshipworld.com/topic/25172-caf-granado-by-cafmodel-148/?tab=comments#comment-737258

    Yes, there is such a fixture in kit , Only in this way can the designed model be installed accurately
  17. cafmodel
    Yes, he contains everything you said

    https://cafmodel.com/products/hms-granado Coming soon Le coreur is done and we're starting a new project Our mortar ship La salamandre is temporarily unavailable for sale due to copyright issues, so we are ready to start a new mortar ship. I started to design this kit in 2013, but his ribs were too complex, so he was stranded later，After years of experience, we feel that we can continue now。 This is a model photo of the museum This is the final state of design in 2013

    I think it will take 2 weeks as soon as possible, I need to wait for the casting factory to produce the parts Most of the work has been done, followed by packaging and inspection I haven't finished the remaining masts and sails. I'll start to finish the samples next week If I have time, I'd like to make an oil painting for Le coureur。I haven't painted for a long time，I hope it can be finished by the end of the year

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.
