    I got to the point of building the gun ports and realized I'd have to start over from scratch; too many early mistakes. So, I threw it out and started over (after scavenging the keel). I'm now almost as far along on the second build as I was with the first attempt. I built a sanding jig and, by cracky, I didn't break a single bulkhead when sanding.

    Thanks, everyone. I plan on seeing this through to the end. I've built several model ships already but they're sub-standard because I still lack some of the more critical skills, which I'm hoping to learn on this project. I don't need to be a great model ship builder, but I'll do what's necessary to become a good one. Message ends. Leo

    Plywood and trace paper purchased and ready to go: Transferring templates to plywood: My 3-week old Harbor Freight scroll saw died after 6 hours. They happily replaced it with a new one. Bulkheads complete: Message ends. Leo

    I bought a used kit on Mamoli Constitution kit on eBay a few years ago. I just blew the dust off of it and got started... and I was immediately stopped. I don't know exactly how many plan sheets I'm missing, but I am at least missing the sheet for table G. I'm wondering if anyone out there would who has completed the model would be willing to sell me the plan sheets? I'm dead in the water without them, so any help out there would be fantastic... Thanks! Leo

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.
