    I am working with some extraordinarily small wooden rigging blocks on my current project. In reading some of the stories enclosed, I was hoping to find the “magical method” which more experienced modelers have found. And hence, I find there is none! The only viable solution I find is to open the holes larger than what they are and appreciably larger than the rigging line itself. I am going to attempt to apply CA glue, or Crazy Glue in my world, to the end of the rigging thread, not to distort the configuration of the thread, and then rig my blocks. When I’m done doing this, I can eliminate the glued end of the thread. What amount of thread to allow for any segment of the rigging process is obviously an experienced call. A lighted magnifying lens could assist in the process. Fortunately, my glasses suffice. Would love to hear back on my analogy. Thanx!

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.
