    Thank you Kurt and Roger. So I'm in the process of downsizing my living space to something much smaller and with less available shop space. Maybe even just a second bedroom. That said, I'm in the process of liquidating my furniture shop power tools I was once able to use before old age and health issues set in. Kurt, did the searches and am amazed at the information stowed away on this site. Appreciate the tip. tooter

    Setting up my model shop and seeking advice for a band saw selection. Thinking a 9 in. with 62 in. blade being about the right size. Build quality, performance and reliability all keys to my buy choice. So far I have the three Byrnes tools and a DeWalt scroll saw, but needing to slice slabs off 2 in. + thk. billets with a thin kerf so as to not waste material. Also, input for blade choices for this to mill Swiss pear appreciated. Guidance from the masters please? tooter

    Hi all! A newbie here to this ship modeling gig. Planning a scratch Bluenose POF build for my first project and made an initial wood purchase from Joe V to get started assembling the keel and fabricating frame members. I just want to share my thoughts about this first time buy experience: - Easy to do business with - Timely response interactions and order fulfillment - Quality product; the Swiss Pear sheets I received are simply outstanding - Cut/surface finish condition top notch, that from a true craftsman I simply can't be more pleased! A shoutout to Joe! Tooter

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.
