    Baker — sure! Thanks, you’ve got a really sharp eye! Will do.
  25. Olli Sukunimisson
    Thanks, Hans With all the rigging, she’s turning into a cocoon A beautiful one
  26. Olli Sukunimisson
    Never give up—except when you’re trying to build a lantern Ok, I gave up and used the lantern from the kit. It’s really nice, much better than my attempts
  27. Olli Sukunimisson
  28. Olli Sukunimisson
    Uhhhh
  29. Olli Sukunimisson
    Thanks! Those are the warmest words one shipbuilder could ever say to another. Really, these 17th-century Dutch ships are full of soul—I don’t know if it’s their nature or if Hans gives them his own, but they are truly special. I’ll be glad to see your log.
  30. Olli Sukunimisson
    Rigging in progress. Heh, Mr. Hans created such a beautiful kit.
  31. Olli Sukunimisson
    Thanks, gentlemen! I’ve received planks from a German mill and reshaped the channels to something more or less close to the draft. This temporary lantern will stay here until my soldering skills improve.
  32. Olli Sukunimisson
    Throughout its long history, humanity has created many different kinds of lanterns. But this one is special — my first attempt at soldering.
  33. Olli Sukunimisson
    The masts are ready. I have to say, what adds a certain edge to the experience is that they were crafted in true Amish style — entirely by hand. The thing is, when I went to the store for a power drill, not a single one leapt into my arms or whispered that it had been waiting for me all along, insisting I had no right to leave without it. Perhaps that’s just how power drills are. In any case, I never bought one. The only upside is that making each mast has turned into an exciting, slightly masochistic adventure.
  34. Olli Sukunimisson
    First mock-up of the mount. Seems like it should work.
  35. Olli Sukunimisson
    Hi ccoyle, It’s on a looong pause. This paper prototype is sitting in my office. Looks promising, but I’ve bought an original speeljacht kit from Kolderstok. I suppose we can close this thread for now. I’ll get back to it sometime later
  36. Olli Sukunimisson
    Hello gentlemen! Great to see you again. Let's continue

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.
