    There we go. Some decent Balsa wood blocks. It's not right, when you buy a kit you shouldn't have to blindly make peices. It should come with them.

    So I've decided number 36 sucks. I have temporally made them out of polystyrene and screwed the decks down. The holes won't matter because I haven't planked the decks yet. Oh dear. Looks like the next step is to plank the hull. Wish me luck
  15. TreeSqueak
    I've looked at that one, but I can't find anything about number 36.
  16. TreeSqueak
    Next issue, I can't find number 36 at all. It looks like there are 14 of them. And it says they are plywood, but I can't find them on the diagram.????
  17. TreeSqueak
    Yeah. Which is why I think it just skipped the step of adding that vaneer to number 33.
  18. TreeSqueak
    Note to self and others, image number 8 is mislabeled. Or maby part 33 needs to be lined with 30. I'm going to need to look into that.

    I have now assembled the main frame and installed the Gunn deck. I tried to make it look a little more realistic with some false joins and some clear coat mixed with a tiny bit of paint.

    I have Translated the Instructions, that only came in Italian. Feel free to use these as you will. Instructions.docx
  21. TreeSqueak
    I'm working on this ship right now, but it didn't come with instructions in English for some reason (the blue book of instructions seems to be entirely in Italian), i can follow the pictures, as well as your posts, but do you still have yours by any chance and the ability to scan them?
  22. TreeSqueak
    Two of the same number and neither fit the instructions??
  23. TreeSqueak
    Two of the same number and neither fit the instructions?? Ok next question. There seems to be two number nines, and they both match the high tech cut diagram, but not the instructions, can I just assume the instruction photos are of a slightly different model?
  24. TreeSqueak
    Thank you soooo much, those guides will be very useful
  25.    TreeSqueak reacted to a post in a topic: Very Basic Bulkhead alignment question
  26. TreeSqueak
    Bulkhead I have a very basic question so that I don't stuff up before I've barely started. I know my bulkhead peices need to be at right angles, but should I be lining them up at the top or the bottom? I have started lining them up at the top, but the bottoms don't line up, is this normal? I think they should be lined up at the top, but I'm going to pause for an answer before I continue.

    This is my First Build since I was a child, My first boat is unfinished and gathering dust at my Mothers house with copious amounts of filler. Im going to have lots of questions and I'm hoping to find some good tips here.

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.
