Hello everyone, I wish everyone a happy and healthy new year. Now a new update of my work on Le Coureur. In the last few weeks I have attached the planks to the deck, set tree nails and converted the anchor winch according to the Ancre plans. The construction of the deck started and the interior planking was installed.

Hello everyone, what has happened in the last few days, well, I provided the doors with liquid glass and continued with the interior decoration. Sheets and pillows sewn as well as 5 sacks, 11 barrels made as good as possible. Unfortunately, I don't own a lathe or turning machine, so a mandrel and the drill had to do its humble job, I'm not yet satisfied with the result. Fittings (barrel rings) as well as frames and lids still have to be made. I wish everyone a nice evening.

So first of all thanks for the likes. Hello and have a nice Sunday evening. I haven't been able to build too much on Le Coureur in the last week. Now it was time to construct the partition wall with the doors, but I had to find out that everything didn't fit somehow. The wall and the doors were about 2-3mm too high so I started to reduce the size of the floor and grind down the bulkhead of the ammunition chamber that brought about 1mm. Next I put in the beam and the walls on the left and right. Then I built a door frame because I really wanted movable doors. I was able to implement everything and I am happy that everything worked out. Oh yeah, the stove and the dresser were the smaller projects this week.

Hello everyone, thank you very much for your interest and your likes. In the last few days I have constructed the loading area in the middle of the ship. In doing so, I deviated a little from the plans and brought in some personal inspiration. I also put in support walls below the loading platform. I filled one side with ballast stones. Between decks and bulkheads were made. At the front bulkhead there is a hatch to keep it moving. I aligned the frame of the hatch on double-sided adhesive tape and then milled a groove with the milling machine. I also milled the sliding door. I am happy that everything works. thanks for watching Tobias

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.
