    Still got to make some drawers for the left and right sides.....vacuum lived in the middle!
    Bench top is 2m in length.....plenty of space for tools!

    hi all
    the saga of the hinges continues
    the first attempt with copper was not entirely successful so decided to switch back to brass.
    the hinges are nearly done ...just a load of 0.5 mm holes to drill....a lot of cleaning up and then to blacken
     
    photos enclosed as per usual

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.
