    Thanks for the heads-up I'll do a "soak-test" first

    Thanks starlight - appreciated I did look for build logs for this, and though only one appeared to have gotten longer than I am, I did get some inspiration from the pictures in the log - just wasn't sure how to "get there". Hadn't seen the planking tutorials, but i'll check it out before i get to it!

    Thanks Jeff - appreciated Would that be soaking in just water (i heard somebody mention a bit of vinegar in it too)? The pictures doesn't really show, but its the aft section that needs the soaking most, as it has more of a twist to it as well as the bend.

    My first build..... So far everything is good - and spirit is high!😀 Still have a lot of filing/sanding to do on the battens and frames, before the first real "hard part" starts. Next will be the fitting of bulwarks and then later lining strakes. These parts needs to be made more flexible before fitting and for this i would need some expert advise: *Per the instructions the "bulwark should be dampened with water or applied heat before twisting in place", and the Lining strakes should be "soaked in water" Any advise on how the above is done best would be highly appreciated! Thanks

    Hello Been wanting to build model ships since i was a kid, and now, recently divorced I have the time and space to live it out!! Just received "Occre Palamos 1:45 Scale", though looking at the instructions, this may be a bit "long-haired" as the first one...? Waiting for some building tools to arrive and will be ready to start this weekend!! Already been gathering a lot of tips and inspiration from this forum!

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.
