    I hit the assembly various times throughout planking the hull so I waited until the hull was finished and smoothed everything and then applied more WOP. I don't think you can go wrong touching it up now and then when you finish planking the hull though. Kind of 50/50 to me.

    Very nice! Enjoy your vacation.
  16. Rustyj
    I would leave them as is until you take some measurements from the plans to confirm what is the correct height.
  17. Rustyj
    That looks outstanding. So much nicer than anything I've seen in the past!

    That may be a bit of an understatement!

    She's looking really nice Glen. I have faith you'll conquer the moldings before you run out of wood!
  29. Rustyj
    Very much so. I'm really looking forward to the inboard work! Thanks Glenn and yes I will be using pear to plank the decks.
  30. Rustyj
    Ah that looks so nice Mike!

    Chapter 4 Cherry parts have arrived as well as the hatch grating kits!!!!! They are even better that they look. I installed the beams that create the opening for the hatches. Next I had to "fair" the tops of the bulkheads. As I decided to cut my own bulkheads there is some minor variations in the height of the tops of the bulkheads. It's probably a combination of sanding to the line or taking the line. That seems minor but it can cause some minor stepping. To get the run as smooth as possible I sanded the whole thing. Next I'll start dry

    Looking great Bob. You sure didn't let any moss grow!
  33. Rustyj
    Wonderful job on the deck. Have you given thought on how you're going to mount her yet?
  34. Rustyj
    Very very nice work Ben!
  35. Rustyj
    Great workmanship. She's a beauty!

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.
