    Thanks. I'm over near Bass Lake. I've been reading some of the build logs on the smack, so I'm getting to know where the potential problem areas are.

    Hey everyone. I've been building model kits since I was about 10 (I'm 54 now), exclusively plastic. I've been interested in wooden kits for quite some time, but never took the plunge until now. A couple of weeks ago, I spotted a kit in a thrift store for under $20 (Midwest Products Muscongus Bay Lobster Smack) and decided it would be a decent "beginner" kit to try out and see if building wooden kits was something I'd be interested in doing. I found this forum while looking to see what other kits were available out there in the world. I've also already been reading build logs for the same kit that I found. I plan to do a lot more reading before I start and hope to learn all sorts of tips and techniques from the other members. I have to say, from what I have seen so far, the builds shown in here are excellent. It's obvious that there are quite a number of very skilled people in here who love sailing ships. Looking forward to the experience.

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.
