    Ah someone from sausage county 😁 I can remember when I moved to Del back in the 70s, "Lower" started at the C&D Canal...... Now a days I think it's around south of Milford and west of rt-113.

    The ones you don't ask because you don't want to look dumb.......But in the end you look dumb for not asking?

    Been lurking around here for the past couple of weeks, figured I should register and say hello. I've done a couple of kits in the late 90s and early 2000s after an motorcycle accident left me home for a year recouping. I needed something to keep my mind sharp....Mental therapy to go along with my physical therapy....Model ship building fit the bill perfectly. I started and finished the Bluenose II by Artesania Latina. Then moved onto the Constellation by the same manufacturer. Then I lost interest for various reasons. Fastforward to the present day. A couple of months ago I finished my rock crawling truck that I've been upgrading for the last 20 years. It was really a big scratch built metal/welding model of sorts. Now with that done with that, I need something to keep my mind and hands busy....So I decided to get back into wooden ships part time. Last week I ordered the Rattlesnake by Model Shipways. Got all my old tools and books out.....One thing I did need to get was a lighted 8x magnifying glass as my 58 years eyes aren't what they used to be. Now I know what little skills I had are a bit rusty......Ok a lot rusty....But I'm looking forward to the challenge. I'm going into this knowing that it's going to be long term project with a lot less time to work on things. Anyway I need to apologize in advance for all the dumb question I'm sure to ask in the future......I promise I'll try to use the search button first. Wish me luck. Thanks, Julian

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.
