    Excellent seizing and rigging Glenn. So neat and clean!

    I've started adding the lower shrouds to the fore mast. A little progress is better than no progress!

    Thanks Greg!

    A lot of repetitive work but they look great Bob!

    She looks fantastic Glenn. Well done!

    Thanks Chuck. Yes this is the reward for all the planking. 😁

    Thank you Reg, JJ and Glenn. Also for all the likes. Glenn despite it's size it's really a lot of fun. Plus it's not rigged so that helps keep the foot print down.

    I was able to find a little time to complete the rudder cover and the benches. The parts are laser cut from cherry by Syren. and are perfect. Now I have to clean up any dust so I can add the windows to the stern and Q galleries '.

    Thanks Joe. Yes still 6 days a week. Though the activity is decreasing I've still have to put in the hours. I just pick away a bit at a time and I post once I've compiled enough.

    Thanks Glenn.

    Hi Glenn, Your Cheerful is looking great and so are your pictures. Love it!

    For me it seems I spend an extraordinary amount of time rerunning line as I keep crossing them. She's coming along nicely.

    Hi Greg. I've enjoyed working with the pear and happy with the way it is looking. As to the rudder opening you are correct about the openings size. I can get about 2/3 movement but I didn't want to cut away more of the frieze. So straight and steady for this Winnie! Can't get anything past those sharp eyes of yours.
  20. Rustyj
    Exactly! Just follow Chucks mantra "slow and steady"
  21. Rustyj
    Thanks Greg. For me I would do it at Chapter 5. It wasn't hard at all to do and I'd worry about putting the frieze on with the hole there.
  22. Rustyj
    For me the center was the hardest. You should have smoother sailing now.
  23. Rustyj
    Beautiful work!
  24. Rustyj
    Yes I do too. Thank you for creating such a wonder design that we get to have so much fun with! Thanks Glenn and Bob. She's so much fun to build. Also thanks for the likes too!

    Ok I can breath a little easier. I flipped her over cut the hole mounted the rudder and no dropsies. As per the instructions the pintels and gudgeons were added, sanded thinner and the the bolts simulated with 20lb monofilament though once everything was painted black they are hard to see in the pictures. First Test Fit Starting the finishing And finished I've seen Chuck beautiful base and pretty soon I've gotta figure out how I'm gonna mount her!

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.
