All those hold edge good when done properly. Ayc is easist to shape from those 3 i would say. All those spices are offered by Modellers sawmill. Not sure about postage cost in US but maybe they can provide you with some samples if you ask and pay for postage. Its best just to try them i would say. Vahur Hobbymill.EU

Hi all, Small update as modelling season is coming I have added few new spices (strips and sheets): 1) Hornbeam - nice light color. Still looking for stabilized black, blue, red and yellow. 2) Dark pink Swiss pear - quite few photos added below where dark and light are together. Nice contrast between them 3) Ebony I have also made quite good contact with one possible Holly supplier and probably will make order for smaller batch. Development: I also offer strips with caulking already done. Attached are photos with test done with swiss pear and AYC. Email for quotes and more info. Those are not listed on web yet.

Which CNC Machine to get?
Wahka_est replied to KrisWood's topic in Modeling tools and Workshop Equipment
Hi When i was thinking about cnc (finally decided to make laser instead) i was looking far Stepcraft. Ofcourse much more expensive as 3018 etc but seemed to be high quality German made. https://www.stepcraft.us You can also buy additional head for laser engraving but it really wont work for cutting.

Looks really good. I also tried at first to get it symmetric but saw that its impossible. At least my strips provided in kit are with quite big tolerance thickness and width. Also im sure real ships are not so symmetric also . It looks really good. I had tough time to get that "cutout" done around gunports. Finally i bought miniature chisels that worked perfect. Next big headache is doing the hatches middle the wales. Its impossible to get them done after planking but i see that you also have left them open and do them afterwards. Would be so much easier to plank around them with hatches already glued to place . Really nice job. Keep us updated Vahur Hobbymill.eu

They are based in China. You should ask if its really Calycophyllum multiflorum (castello boxwood) or its something else. Its hard to say based on photos if its real…. Real looks like this. You can pm me if you are interested as we also offer carving blocks sizes based on request. Vahur Hobbymill.EU

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.
