    I did attach ropes and blocks to all masts and spars on the bench 1st. Like you said.. Wasn't hard to figure out that laying flat on the bench was by far easier Then once they're on the ship
  16. JFMJr
    That's what I did.. Built all masts & spars Prior to installing. Actually just finished attaching all completed masts and bowsprit to ship. It's time for some rope!
  17. JFMJr
    That definitely seems to be their consensus... The manufacturer says otherwise but I agree with all you guys.. Thanks for the help

    This information will save me a lot of time..lol Very much appreciated... Biggest challenge to the build was figuring.Things out the instructions didn't tell you
  20. JFMJr
    Appreciate your input! Makes sense to me
  21. JFMJr
    First build. HMS Beagle. Have just completed bowsprit and all masts. Installing on ship now. Question is rat lines 1st? or all others 1st or does it matter? Thanks for sharing your expertise in advance.
  22. JFMJr
    Looks good! I am building the same ship.. I should be finishing the masts shortly.. The quality of the model I think is good.. The instructions..not so good..lol
  23. JFMJr
    I am currently on my first build.. The same ship.. I have a build log here also. I fallen behind you.. Have been following yours... great work Should have all the masts completed this week.. Next starting the.. Looks intimidating... Your ship looks great..
  24. JFMJr

  26. JFMJr
    My opinion is looks awesome...and intimidating...lol Just starting the bowsprit on my Beagle. As you stated the instructions are very little help. Those on here and videos I found are why I have made it this far. Again...looks amazing...great job sir.
  27. JFMJr
    Have you started planking yet ? How is it going? I found it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.

    Awesome. Will be attempting it this evening! Have followed John Aliprantis videos. Had missed the beginning of video 33 where he does show the location. Agree on the pitiful instructions, it's my first build. Are other models instructions any better? A lot of the challenge with this build is figuring out how? Again thanks for the help.

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.
