    By Kraken, I think you go it. Congratulations, Glen, the First Mate agrees with me too , and that doesn't happen often lol. The water is so very well done wow. Thank you so much for your log , nicely done even with all the outside distractions lol. So whatcha fixing to do next , I want to get a front row seat. Plus you don't have to send me the 20 us dollars you promised if I write you a glowing review lol. Thank you for the memories it was a lot of fun. Well done my friend

    They are not tied on , just clipped on till I have done the other side. Then I will tie everything together, my dyslexic way of rigging, bottom to top instead of top to bottom lol. Thanks for looking out for me.
  16. Knocklouder
    The shrouds and deadeyes are done on the starboard side, now on to the portside. I will do the portside , then on to the Ratlines, my favorite part lol. Then the upper shrouds and rat lines. This will take awhile and my outside world is hampering my progress 😌. So it might be awhile before I get to post again lol, ok see you guys around. Thanks for everyone's help and time. I know my ships are not historical correct and I should do research on some stuff but my abilities to do that are lacking, but once I see how it is done or attempting to do then I understand. I have only been modeling for about two years, and have learnt to do so much. And there is a mountain of stuff to still learn. So a big thanks to everyone who help me along the way, and apologies for my typos and posting in the wrong place at times, I will get the hang of it lol Ok going to put into practice some of the stuff I learnt Sea you sooner or later lol

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.
