    Great work! I can even hear Jack Aubrey playing his violin.

    I am thinking of building a plastic model of the USS Boxer LPH-4 (I am going to change it to the USS Valley Forge LPH-8) , so I am following your build closely. I have only build wooden ship models lately, so I will copy all your tricks and tips. Your work is excellent.

    Bob I'm finishing up my HMS Surprise which was banned from MSW? (I didn't know it was a banned Chinese knock off when I bought it). The next build will not be banned. I miss all you guys. Your work is magnificent. Rich

    Nice neat work!

    Great work! I guess you are not masting and rigging your ship? I like it this way so the wood working can be better appreciated.

    There will be uses for the Dremel but I never put a power tool near my hull or any finished parts of the ship. I only work on pieces off the model.

    Bravo! Great work.

    Very nice job on your hammock nets. They are tricky. Are you going to put hammocks in them?

    Check out my Connie. Maybe it will help. Good luck

    Lookin' good!

    Is there any truth to the term, "freeze the balls off a brass monkey" that it relates to canon balls in a brass rack?
  12. HIPEXEC
    There's nets attached to the hammock rails. The hammocks are rolled and shoved in from the top. They can also be covered. They are always "piped up" before combat so the hammocks can act as a shrapnel barrier.

    you never cease to amaze!

    Very nice!

    Very nice work

    your attention to detail is enormous! I tend to measure my stuff with a micrometer, calculate it with a computer....then hit it with an ax!

    Looking good!

    Amazing work!

    I love the Cosby piece on Noah!
  22. HIPEXEC
    If we had to build another Noah's Ark...I'd pick you to build it. You are an amazing carpenter!
  23. HIPEXEC
    I guess anybody who builds a USS Constitution runs into the same dilemma....how many windows to put in the stern. I went with three, but during my research I found out these ships changed configurations constantly.

    Looking good!

    Unbelievable! You keep topping yourself.

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.
