Really like being able to see how to do thing here at MSW my first build was because of MSW showing me were to look at what logs and advise , A member who has a Tom Cruise avatar of the Last Samaria his Finished log is so good ,Of the Santa Maria ,that was were I copied the rigging He is so talented like so many others here I will learn so much but got to attend to my sails and more computer lessons lol waiting for parts reading reading reading lol Later

Hi, this must have scared a lot of people, but glad it working again. So now the life boats, well I was raiding the Nina for parts for the Pinta decided to make the canons,and the life boats. They turn out good the boats ,I mean.. The canons I had made different but, after the first one thought it was not right so made them this way instead.

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.
