    Frames glueing up. A little fiddly getting them all lined up. Did a little sanding on them to knock the hard corners off.

    So I’ve compared the #3 frame and crosspiece with the plans in the book and the plans I printed. Well… the crosspiece is slightly larger than the image on the plans in the book and slightly smaller than the “full” size plans I printed. I’m going to proceed by splitting the difference.

    First ship build. Not much to say so far, but here’s a picture. One question though I’ve seen discussion regarding the width of the frames on the plan not being correct. I printed the plans so that the OAL is exactly 10”. So now my frames should be the correct size, correct? 😉 I’ve yet to cut out the frames and compare to the plans. Thanks! Chris

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.
