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.

hi. I know this thread is years old, but I am wondering what was finally used to fix through the wood base, up through the pedestal and into the keel. I am on my first build and have the exact same problem. The Amati pedestals have a hole through the centre, presumably to run a narrow screw through the base, through the pedastal and into the keel. Screw needs to be about 40mm long but as the keel is only 5mm wide, and the thinnest screw I can find is 3mm diam, there’s no way I can attempt to fix in that way.
Thoughts appreciated.
