  25. Coyote_6

  26. Coyote_6

    Hope everyone is doing well. Progress for the weekend: Heel lashing for the jibboom. Lever (page 20, fig 152) says heel lashing/gammoning would be nailed to the bowsprit with a leather washer under the nailhead. 5 turns of Syren ULTRA 0.025" Ultra Brown clipped taught above the jibboom. Bead of superglue along the turns at the bottom of the bowsprit. When dry, removed clip and trimmed off loose ends on the bottom leaving 4 clean turns. Spritsail yard horses and stirrups (Smithsonian Rigging Tables for PdN, 1964). Smithsonian plans list horses and stirrups. Clove hitches at the spar, overhand knots at the horse, dab of superglue to hold them. (Ship Modeling Simplified, Mastini Figure 55, number 6) Syren ULTRA 0.018" for horses. Syren ULTRA 0.012" for stirrups. Stiffened with 50/50 diluted Elmer's School Glue. Footropes at the jibboom. Chapelle plans. Syren ULTRA 0.012" line. Stiffened with 50/50 diluted Elmer's School Glue. Spritsail yard lifts. Chapelle plans and Smithsonian Rigging Tables for PdN. Syren 5/32" blocks. Syren ULTRA 0.012" line. Thanks for checking in as always.

    On the plus side Chuck, I just ordered 4 more bags of line from you today. Thanks for facing down the jerks and still providing the rest of us with the goods to make things happen. Couldn't do it as well without you for sure. Respect.
  29. Coyote_6 started following Sternwheeler From the Susquehanna River's Hard Coal Navy by Keith Black - 1:120 Scale , HMS Grecian 1812 by ECK - FINISHED - Vanguard Models - 1:64 and US Brig Syren by Redshadowrider - Model Shipways - Scale 1:64 - First wooden ship build
  30. Coyote_6
    Congratulations! Grecian is a beauty. Wonderful work. Her and Harpy side by side is just fabulous. Thanks for sharing them together like that.
  31. Coyote_6
    'Tis always so. Looking good Phil. Still waiting for a small deadeye that took flight a couple days ago to return to me. Keep up the great work!
  32. Coyote_6
    Phil - I love your sea stories - brings me back to my Marine Corps days, particularly 1986-1990. Simpler times for sure.
  33. Coyote_6
    Looking great! Thanks for sharing the techniques - very nice!
  34. Coyote_6
    And finally closing the weekend with the bobstays. (Syren Ultra Brown 0.025", Syren Ultra Tan 0.012") I am thinking I might be needing some masts soon to continue rigging? Anyway, thanks for checking in and for any and all comments/advice. (Marquardt, Global Schooner, page 169, figure indexes 2 and 8, Petersson, Rigging Period Fore and Aft Craft, page 84, and Chapelle's rigging plans)

    First deadeye rigged. Like, ever. (Petersson, Rigging Period Fore and Aft Craft, pages 76 and 77)

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.
