That is some extremely well made metalwork Ilhan, your 'smithing' is top notch. cheers Pat

Those garboard planks went in well Dave, have any problems with them? The 3D armament looks good. I gather you have painted them, what colour/brand did you use? Some great progress mate. I ventured into my shed for the first time in months yesterday. Hoping to make a restart (yet again) this week. cheers Pat

From what you describe, I think your choice of option 1 is best also. In the end though it is your choice Richard. Is this just for aesthetics or to waterproof them? If the latter, I think you ample coats to do that. cheers Pat

Thanks Dave, I have a copy (paperback)m of the Sirius Past and Present, and a coffee table book of the First Fleet (the reenactment). Thanks for the feedback; I think only one of those would be useful then (if both are similar in content). I will. go with your advice re Alan Frost. I have a few books on the Investigator and Mather Flinders, as I have great interest in the early cartographers/explorers. The best of these I think is a large format hardcover written by Geoffry Ingleton. cheers Pat

That 'acorn' is probably a ring bolt for the chain stays; certainly that is what they are in the 'Victoria' - the davits look very, very similar. I have been trying to adapt some soft metal ones with no luck. Are these resin prints? cheers Pat

Gold solder for brass
BANYAN replied to Richard Braithwaite's topic in Metal Work, Soldering and Metal Fittings
An interesting question Richard; I too would be interested in knowing. Perhaps a question to jewelry supplier? cheers Pat -
The second one (rock) for me also Glen. You can always say the rock is from Japan Seriously, I think the rock is more in keeping with a nautical theme. cheers Pat

Now that is one unusual and interesting display base Glen. Kudos mate, it looks great. I am sure those pesky penguins would also agree (that is if you have managed to keep them away from the Bundy supply ;)) cheers Pat

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.
