    Merry Christmas Johann! This is a fascinating build, especially the question of the bowlines. I am currently trying to figure out how they were done on an American clipper ship when the sails were sent down. Also where did the bowlines on the main and mizzen run to? The fore mast is pretty obvious, Rick

    Micheal, just sent you my email address. I think it would be worthwhile to post the thread for others interested in building this model. Rick

    This is a really nice build!! I’m particularly interested because I have the same kit from Bluejacket and it’s up next when I get done with the Flying Fish. Thanks for leading the way! Rick

    Keith, how did you drill the holes in the flanges for the portholes? Did you stack them like you did to drill the holes for the rivets? Rick
  14. Rick310
    You constantly amaze Keith!!! Rick

    George, you are making great progress!! Discovery looks great! Good job on the aft deck houses! As an aside, I once went to a Gordon Lightfoot concert in the flats and he was singing The Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald just as a freighter was coming up the Cuyahoga river from Lake Erie! The crew were gathered on deck by the rail listening to the song! Rick

    Unbelievable Keith! Thought I was looking at actual pictures of the owner’s cabin! Rick
  19. Rick310
    Rick, all true words! generally the model doesn’t move and never complains! It also doesn’t ask how long it will take and I suspect, it is always glad to see me!! Nice to meet a fellow dentist on MSW. The model looks great!! Rick

    Rob, the Buttersworth’s painting of the Flying Cloud seems to show an older style windlass under the forecastle at the level of the main deck. Rick
  21. Rick310

  22. Rick310

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.
