    thanks for all the feedback. I was considering basswood since I had a bunch laying from other projects, however from heeding to what you guys have said, I may reconsider basswood for something nicer.

    My neighborhood library recently got this cool laser cutter, and I had the idea of maybe using it to build a frigate model a foot and a half long and with detail akin to a half block, maybe a little more. I'm thinking of making the framing and ribs with Vectorworks and then using basswood to manually plank the hull and do the rest. I've however never done any of this before, so I would like to hear your guy’s experiences with whether something like this Would work. I'd also love any tips for any aspect of this project, especially transcribing the Frigate's plan into CAD.

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.
