    Thank you Richard, Horses for courses (or coarses ;). They are very versitile tools and will cut, sand and shape a wide range of materials with ease. Perma-Grit Tools has a competition running at the moment. If you go to their facebook page @permagrit the very simple rules are shown. They could do with some ship builders. £150 of prizes for each of the 4 Classes. £100 of Perma-Grit tools & £50 of Deluxe Materials glues and resins. They are hoping to encourage youngblood to the hobby of model making. The engineers of the future possibly, and if not it will stand them in good stead. If you know anyone that might be interested it would be really great to have some boat / ship builders join in. Thank you T

    Hi Perma-Grit Tool’s here. Thank you for reviewing some of our range, that we thought may be appropriate for your craftsmen. Reading the comments it seems that our files are a little to coarse for some. This tip may help, when using our files only a light pressure should be applied, the Grit does not degrade, unlike sandpaper the minute you start using it. When you sand with a light touch, a fine layer of dust will build up on the tool, and give you a finer finish. When you have finished, tap the tool and all the dust will be removed. The only time they will clog is if you sand a little to early, when a resin or glue has not cured. The finest tools we supply are between a 320 & 400 grit. Enjoy your building and keep well. Thank you Tracey - Perma-Grit Tool.

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.
