    Glenn, you have done yourself proud! Your work and dedication to "getting it right" produced a Winnie that is a feast to the eye. It's been a pleasure following along. Though it was three years ago you started, it also seems so much shorter. Well done!

    Very nice Ben!

    Looks like you are off to a great start Steve.

    Well, I'm back and will be heading to the workshop this weekend to continue the adventure. Hi Ben, All the frames are seated on the keel at the same level. It might be an illusion with the picture. I looked at the model last night and there is a gentle and consistent rise from the dead flat frame fore and aft. I think I've got it right. Time to limber up the arm and start sanding!
  30. Rustyj
    Another well done model, and your display is perfect. I'm looking forward to what's next. Don't suppress the desire!
  31. Rustyj
    Thank you Rick, Yes, the summer does put a big crimp in the shop time. Thanks Glenn, three weeks away. Really looking forward to it. I've just come off a month stretch of constant work. Once I'm back shop time will be more readily available.
  32. Rustyj
    Chapter One is completed sort of. All the frames have been placed, sweep port and gun ports all framed in. Next I'll have to spend several days fairing the hull. A fairly decent amount of sanding is needed to get the hull close to where I would like it to be before proceeding on to Chapter Two. This will have to wait though as we're heading out on vacation for the next three weeks. Happy to be going away, sad no modeling! 😂

    Hi Tim, I do not have the instructions or plans anymore, and it was over 12 years ago so the memory is a little sparce to say the least. Plus my build log was lost in the great crash several years ago. First with the end grain of the frames I used a lot of yellow wood glue. It will fill in the spaces and it held nicely. I looked at some pictures and center and aft frames were glued at right angles. I would test the fore center piece to see how it fits. That might help determine how the angles should be. I hope this helps some.

    Thank you for sharing and your build looks great! Greg has good advice and either method should produce results that you will like. I'll be sure to pay attention to that area once I get there. Also, thanks everyone for stopping by and all the likes.

    Another creative idea that I'll store away. Thanks!

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.
