  2. Les Moore
    Hi my name is Les Moore I live in Perth Western Australia I bought a Mantua model HMS Victory art 782 same as the 738 without sails. I was born in Chatham England where the Victory was built So it has a special place I am retired 79 so have plenty of time. i have completed the hull but desperately need help to fit the gun port lids as the instructions are useless I believe that after I drill the holes using the template provided I have to glue the pinties into the hull and glue the brass port hinges onto the gun port lids I have already cut and painted once the hinges and pinties are glued I believe I have to fix them with glue using the brass wire and I have to bend the hinge to accommodate the rope that goes into the hull I would appreciate any help on this, photos would be great or just a basic suggestion to help me to continue kind regards Les Moore

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.
