    Hi Dave, just join MSW and I am building the same Bluenose as you, regarding your question about Main rail (Caprail) get some tracing paper and trace over main rail on sheet 3 deck plan, you will see they are made up from three pieces use the kit wood 1/16 x 1/2 stock, turn the tracing paper over lay on wood and using a pencil follow your tracing and you will end up with a faint line then cut out shape, just remember what you trace will be the opposite side hope this helps, if you need more I could show you with pictures. Regards Richard

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.
