hi jbcallender, for second layer i'm using the same wood glue, it needs more time to fix it but you can move & adjust the position a few seconds. I use a spare piece of wood to leave a very thin layer of glue in the plank and avoid spare glue, because the spare glue can damage and stain the wood. My problem with the second layer is the planks cannot admit a minimal deviation from his own natural curvature, so if you wants to fix in a non natural bend they are leaving gaps between it; this problem is in the bow and the stern where the planks must to be forced to accomodate the curvature of the hull. My recommendation is to test each plank in the hull and fix it avoiding gaps if it's possible, because you'll not have a lot of wood to sand later. sorry for my english language, each day is worse hehehe regards,

wwhhooaaaa the fixation of the boats are very very nice and clean! and with the sled, nice addition (i've copied it from you hehehe). really in ALL points i'm seeing are improvements from the original...

hi nr.mihau, the reason is that Terror ship from Occre has two kits: one of this complete with sails and another one cheaper without sails. My kit was buyed in pandemy so only the cheaper was in stock 🙂 Anyway, in the drawings are pictured the sails so you can make it easily. My first model was made with sails and the second (Terror), without it. And i prefer it without sails, frankly! we can see all job in the mast and all the ridging. regards, i'll search your thread to see your improvements! 🤩

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.
