    Those cranes are very neat with good edges etc for card - i don't think PE could do that much better! Nice work Danny. cheers Pat

    Beautiful joinery; beautiful details - what more can one say! cheers Pat

    Hi Ensign, have you tried eBay for second hand copies. Also some online book sellers like Abe Books may have second hand copies for sale? Also check out the various logs as there is some discussion on many aspects of the rigging within them. cheers Pat
  11. BANYAN
    Very impressive work. Hand over hand is the correct technique BUT, one hand must always remain on the rope being handled. cheers Pat

    Hi Rob, looks like a theme developing there Rigging - not a fan? cheers Pat

    Fosters is exported for a good reason - no one here drinks it Nicely finished model Greg and sits well with your 'fleet'. I look forward to your next build. cheers Pat
  14. BANYAN
    That's a great job on the launches; you have to be happy with them. cheers Pat
  15. BANYAN
    That is a very nice display stand Keith; it should set off the model beautifully. cheers Pat
  16. BANYAN
    Thanks for that tip Eberhard; I'll have a go at that as it looks a very useful adaption. cheers Pat

    Hi Janet, as the first option I would contact Jim as he is very helpful with these matters. I have used the machine for prolonged periods with no issue (thicknesser and disk sander). You did not specify which, but recently I had an issue with the switch/capacitor of my disk sander and Jim helpfully sent me a replacement - it burnt out on me but I noticed it and stopped the machine immediately. You may have experienced a similar issue? I hope the tech checked the motor for you also as some of these motors do not like being overheated. cheers Pat

    Nice work yet again Dan. Starting to look like?? Your effort is every bit as good as a builder's model with perhaps even better detail. cheers Pat
  19. BANYAN
    Hi Rob, just found your build and had a quick scan, but will need to peruse more closely. What a great subject and build. I wish I was as quick in building cheers Pat
  20. BANYAN
    That is very nice work again Eberhard. I seem to never have the right sized piece to be held in a similar soldering pad I have - I always have to use shims or the like cheers Pat
  21. BANYAN
    That's an impressive build and paint job Greg - that one can go straight to the 'pool room' (an Aussie reference for International viewers :)) cheers Pat
  22. BANYAN
    Great progress Danny; looking really good. Its a pity the top card layer (thwarts, bottom planks etc) was not a two-piece set to give a sense of depth inside the boats; other than that they look really good. cheers Pat
  23. BANYAN
    Very consistent quality work; a joy to see. cheers Pat
  24. BANYAN
    Nice machine work Eberhard; thanks for showing 'how' cheers Pat
  25. BANYAN
    Hi Dave, just to clarify, the 'cleats' not the shrouds kept twisting - not sitting at 90 degrees to the shroud (i.e facing inboard); finally sorted doing it in a similar fashion to you. 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.
