    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

    Thank you How often do they have a sale? Looks like that guy got his for like 148 at some hobby store, Lucky find.
  17. lstmysock11
    Any idea what these installments cost? No idea since his store is offline at the moment but would be nice to know about what they cost. Also I see people using some kind of jig to hold up their work as they start to build. What jig is that and where to find? Andrew

    Scratch building a PT boat is a interesting idea but I have never scratch build anything and with out some sort of kit to guide me. Well I would not know where to start.

    Hi Allan thank you for this info Little hesitant on his models since they do require some scratch building. Do they come with the drawnings of the parts I would need to make that are not included? Or information out there on how to make the parts not included?

    Also anyone heard of tapatalk? Is it possible to use it with these forums? Have not found these forums on the app but in a search almost looks like a few people have used it.

    After the Dory and the two other beginner kits what is a good kit to look at? Would love to at some point build one of the tall ships but not sure what one. Possibly one can get in sections so do not have to lay out several hundred dollars at once to buy the kit. Not sure how many have kits that you can buy like that. Andrew

    Located in Virginia about half way between DC and Richmond. Looking to get into Wooden ship building but have never attempted a model build like this before. Good kits to look at that wont break the bank. Also nothing to small as I have big fingers and the eye sight is not what it used to be, Nothing to big as only have so much room lol. Also What tools and good places to find them? 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.
