    They are brilliant received mine back in June will be doing more carving on my next build, Mikail was very nice to deal with and even showed me some of his carvings they are absolutely outstanding, a master carver. He also gives you how to sharpen and with pictures. Here is one of the pictures Bob they are not a special order you just pay more. Very satisfied customer 👍 Regards Richard

    That's a nice picture you have of the corridor and stairs Keith, and they look very fancy and elegant, your stairs are looking brilliant too 👍. But if you did as per Pat and leave the above deck companion loose you could lift and show someone if interested 🤔. Have been playing in the main cabin myself, but only have a sketch from LB Jenson which is not of the Bluenose, but I assume it would have been very similar for a Fishing Schooner of the period, will be leaving the Companion Way loose.

    Its only 997 Km or 11 hrs 27 mins that's a bit an't it that would be a lovely motorbike ride. Home made fruit scones jam and clotted cream yummy 🍺 and lucky for us on the Island we have only had approx 150 cases of the virus 😷 😄 Regards Richard

    Hi Jim, Going to send just the table assembly or maybe 🤔 I should send the whole saw back with the new switch which will be here tomorrow and if possible you could machine the hole in the front for the switch what do you think? Would you still have to go through NFTA because that adds another $100 plus dollars? Best 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.
