I had tried the Dory and that is part of why I got stuck , plus some of those directions where not very clear to me with some of the first steps. Yes some of those pieces are way to flimsy.
-
Thank you I emailed them and they told me that. Impressed that they answered me in under 5 minutes.

I emailed them and asked, they said they have a shipment on the way soon from England and should have some next week with any luck. I also found this on youtube, He has made a bunch of videos on the Sherbourne. I did notice in his video some of the wood sheets are rather thin, I would not want to accidentally break parts. Guess just have to be really careful.

are there any decent boat keel building jigs? I see billings jig but do not see any place to buy it.
-
Looks like a nice model, If I get that I will have to order from the UK. Seems ageofsail has that model as out of stock.

Think I might go with titanic by occre has a line of videos to help it will keep me busy for a good amount

About 2 years ago I had tried the Dory but totally messed up in the start of the kit and it ended up in the trash. I should try again and this time I did find the youtube video on step by step on the dory.

Hi all Would like to give this a try, I had made a attempt a few years ago but did not get very far. Had looked at Occre Bounty boat and found a couple videos they made on building it. Figured a good video could be a very helpful thing but there video has no audio what so ever or subtitles or anything like that. Any sugjestions for a beginner. On there site if you search for beginner it was showing me the Santa Maria, Looks like a nice kit but it is over 200 dollars. Would like something that will teach me and the directions are half way decent and not to to expensive. What are the basic tools I will need?

Thank you, Just looked on Model shipways the only one that I can not seem to find is the Niagra in a search for the kit. Maybe the stopped making it? -
I am a new jack and looking for a future big project. What tools are needed for this build? How hard is this ship to build? How difficult to make the parts not supplied with the laser cut parts you can buy? How much are the installment sets? Andrew

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.
