That's got to be the widest variety of clamps used on a boat at the same time! Despite all the difficulties you described, your planking came out beautiful. That next to last picture is fabulous! I also notice that Marvin disappeared from the last few pictures. Did you scare him away with all that language that's been filling up the super D cup? 😃

I'm late to the show but working my way to the front row. Looks like an interesting subject and I love the prominent wood grain. But the best part is the dedication of the build. Toast to your First Mate!!!

I tried to stop myself from doing this, Keith, I really did. But my fingers just wouldn't listen. I fully expect for you to block me from your build log going forward.

Those sails look great, Steven. What kind of paint did you use?

That is very interesting! And I was certain Pat and the rest of the proud Aussies were trying to confuse me again with their lingo. Too bad they don't sell that Bundaberg rum here in Texas or I'd help myself to more than a tot!

If you did not tell us about the issues, we would not notice them. In fact, I'm not sure I see any as it is. It's in the bottle, standing up on all 4 legs, crane towering over everything, and looking fantastic! Superb work!!

Once again I fail the Aussie vocabulary test. What is a "tot"? A drink of some kind maybe?

Oh man, been there done that! Very nice save on your part to get the hull pieces separated and back out of the bottle. Sounds like you have a good plan for round 2 by fixing the ship in place before additional construction. I am anxious to hear how it goes. Like Bob above, I am also in the rooting section!

LOL!!! Like just about everything else, if you deep fry it long enough, it tastes pretty good!

Those tiny propellers are amazing! Nice work. Almost time for the exciting moment of truth! Good luck with the bottling process!! To your question - yes, I have reused the hose and funnel several times. As soon as I'm done pouring the epoxy resin, I take a can of brake cleaner and liberally spray the inside of the hose and funnel. After that treatment they are good to go again!

Thank you for all the kind words. Each of you had a helping hand throughout this build and were truly instrumental in bringing my crazy idea to life. I am really blessed to be surrounded by so many incredibly talented (and entertaining) modelers. My hat tips to all of y'all!

The wheel and binnacle look great, Mark!

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.
