    Thanks Mike, my plan is to shape a bow timber and glue it in place. While the glue is setting, I'll alternate between shaping the next timber and start rough fairing of the forward frames. I'll move towards the bow and blend the frames with the bow timbers once they are all in place. Man there is a lot of sanding to do. Thank you Ian, I constantly refer to Chuck and Mikes logs. Great information there. Thanks Ben, Also thanks for all the likes.

    I've finished with the forward cant frames and now it's on to the bow timbers. Chuck etched taper reference lines on both sides to help get the correct shape. A lot of shaping with an x-acto and sandpaper. The first pair are done and ready to go on the model.

    I've finished the preliminary sanding of the hull. There's more to be done but I'll finish that up once I've installed all of the fore and aft cant frames. I was apprehensive of this part but Chucks framing jig and laser cut parts make it less stressful than I thought! I've been cleaning and assembling the cant frames in between sanding and placing the fore cant frames. Here you see I've placed the first three fore cant frames. finish that up once I've installed all of the fore and aft cant frames. Here you see I've placed the first three fore cant frames.

    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!
  29. Rustyj
    I'm sure you will come up with something interesting!

    Outstanding work on the headrails and bumpkins. Your journey is almost over!

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.
