She looks the business Phil. And the black looks serious at that angle and lighting - very cool project!

@Dr PR Somehow when I read "I bent some sheet brass to make a frame for a splint and wrapped it in gauze. I taped it to the finger" it said "I bent some sheet brass to make a frame for a splint, wrapped 'er in sail cloth and lashed 'er fast to the next yard..." Don't know why that happened. (Cool story for sure!)

Mark - that is a bummer! I have tendon problems in my elbow and rest makes it better and continued use makes it worse. Rest it good brother! And do as I say not as I do - typing on this darn phone is a contributing factor to my pain, yet here we are! 🤣 Get well. Maybe time for some research in the downtime? Steve

Wow Phil. "Albatros" looks splendid! Good luck on that rats nest repair. Last week I dropped the PdN and made a quick grab, and my first ever rigging is now my most recent rigging. It was vexxing but accessible at least. It'll be interesting to see your approach to the tight repair, as I am sure Murphy has more in store for all of us and you always take a well thought out approach. Finally, how many more plastic hooks does "Albatros" have? That has been a tough lesson! I hope to make a bunch of brass hooks today, but not as pretty as yours! Good luck pushing her across the line Phil.

Just beautiful!! Congrats to your whole crew! She looks fast on that stand. The new NRG "Ship Modeler's Handbook" says to bias your build on the stand like you have to imply speed, and by jove does she look fast. Glad you went full sails - awesome build and details.

@Dr PR Beautiful hooks Phil. Look pretty consistant to me! I definitely think brass is the way to go - I hope Murphy doesn't catch on to my unsoldered eyes!! Also I am running out of eyepins and see manufacturing those going forward as well. I like the performance of the solid brass in these applications.

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.
