    Thanks Dan, I ordered a copy of Fincham from Amazon.ca a month ago, but it is still not here. There are a lot of other things that I can attend to on my 'Beagle' model before the masts are actually needed, so it's not slowing me down as such. But if the book arrives without plates, I would like to take you up on your offer! I'll get back to you when it arrives. Do you recall if the plates were bound into the book that you scanned, or were they separate? Ed edluce51@gmail.com

    Hi all, new member here. I have digital copies of Fincham's 'A Treatise on Masting Ships and Mastmaking' that were scanned from University of Michigan library and from Harvard University library. Neither of these scanned volumes seems to include the many Plates that were part of the original work. I am darned if I can follow Fincham's description of construction details without the figures in the Plates to see what he's referring to. Has anyone got a link to on-line copies of the Plates? Alternately, several places will sell physical copies of the work - anybody can confirm that those re-prints typically include the plates? Thanks, Ed

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.
