    No treenails it is then!

    Hhmmmmm......looks like I need to order a saw, just so I have a reason to order one of these! ;o)

    Question for the more experienced: Do I add the treenail "dots" to the deck planking or at this scale would they be too big and look oversized? If the recommendation is to add the treenails, how many on each plank and suggestion on how/what to use to add them?

    Now that I am done with HQ's inspection and home from Mom's funeral, I have been able to do a bit of work off of the hull. Got the yards and booms built and painted with a few touch ups to do and the cannons have had blocks added, still need quoins and straps/bolts added. Today I will clean up the hull, touch up the paint and finish weathering the copper plating. Wish ya'll the best.

    What are the recommendations to select the size of the display board you are going to display a ship on? Cheers!

    Not much progress on the boat, sorry. Been a bit gray. My Mum passed away. Lost Dad in 2006 right after I returned from my second trip to Iraq. Jim and Joan Henderson were the reason I didn't end up in jail or a morgue. Only special people are willing to adopt a 16 year old troubled teen with a juvenile record. At least I was fortunate enough to say goodbye. Ya'll hug your loved ones every chance you get. Peace.

    I wonder if they are going to re-print any of their previous books, especially Vol. I of the book on the HMS Euryalus.
  30. USNCHief013107
    I took the easiest road and went with black all around.
  31. USNCHief013107
    Sir, what are the clips you are using called? They initially look like "bulldog clips" but they have another part on one side that looks like they hold the plank down while the edge of the "spring body" holds it tight against the other plank. Where did you source them? Thanks!

    Need some help! The deck planking came in and I want to get this started, but I do not know what the proper layout should be. Was nibbing done in 1815 and if not, what should my deck have? Waterway or not, margin plank etc.? Thanks!

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.
