AL appears to be afraid we can easily built this model. They arranged some obstacles to keep us busy. . . Anyway will drill additional holes in the third deck (a pity the machine room stacks are already in place). Regards, John

Thanks Adrieke, looking carefully at the ropes it looks like the stern railings will give problems. Think I have to drill holes in the third deck to pass the ropes to the stern. The photo instruction sheet doesnot show such holes, but looking at the 1:1 drawing one should say there are definitely holes in the 3rd deck. Have to think it over. Regards, John

Placed the masts turn-buckles and the cables. According to the parts list the bow mast turn-buckles has a height of 130 mm, but that was causing a nod in the cable caused by the holes in the deck. After checking the 1:1 drawing it appears the height has to be 125 mm instead. After having adjusted same the cable runs free through the holes in the decks. Regards, John

Salute Ferit, Thank you. Luckily there is still a lot of work to do on her, such as all the railings, so I will enjoy building her still for some further weeks. Regards, John

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.
