    Hello, Bob Next moves have their natural order 1. Finish 8 nails left on rudder 2. Correct place where rudder enters in stern and making there little rounded mask from veneer 3. Correct black color in surface between white square rail and coopered surface 4. Paint white rail 5. Correct color on water ports surface 6. Paint first and second "brown" rails 7. In mean time discover and looking for solution how to make final standing for Her, make it and then turn Her over 8. Then tricky part - make/drill/etc etc all little parts on inside and outside parts on bulwarks 9. Then more tricky part - deadeye and nail holding rail along inside bulwarks including deadeyes and nails That is enough for next three years before step No 10. 11. etc 10. making all deck furniture fitting and houses 11. final deck make up That is for next three years before masting VIVA LA PATIENCE !!!!

    Thank you for your nice words Piet and Denis It is a great joy in feeling that I am finally moving forward in a visible way Until mounting rudder it seems to me that nothing moves in building I am thinking about Her and next steps siting in flat that factory I work for rented for me WITHOUT internet ( 21th century ?!?!?!) spending expencive cellphone internet and listening PFloyd Dark side of the moon ... Little boooring, I do not know how to do - nothing

    Wish you luck with new build Right now Im on a bussines trip in a room without internet (using cell phone expencive net) and can not post long posts. Try to analyze plans and logs if other scratch builders. Keel lines and lines of decks give you answer with adding some space for connection of ribs. My english is poor to explain better right now Hardly wait for progress Nenad

    Super !!! Let us know when you start
  11. NenadM
    Yes !!!!! I found a way to make macro photos even with this sh... Camera Chinesse magnifier in front of camera
  12. NenadM
    Start mounting rudder Yes I know, space between rudder and stern has to be smaller, but this is out if my skills. Even work with this little nails 2mm long is horror
  13. NenadM
    Try think about next middle solution: Templates for hull lines from one of kits, and then proceed by Campbell plans and/or photos. Or, harder way, Campbell plans and making your own templates. Yes, you can do this !!!!

    I feel ... you are dangerous close to slide to "dark side"

    60 people were our quests in those two loooong days in our home, and only one wanted to se Her (except me). I think this is one of most important celebration in every parent life. Kids are grown and (almost) ready to spread their own sails in ocean of life And we are a bit older... Only 14℃ outside with continious rain, and I am to lazy to deal with rudder. Add After a hour and half of stearing to something idiotic on TV, could not resist, and went down to make some tests about idea just dropped I stole needles from Admiral forbiden sewing box and smugled them down . With Dremel thing I resized a bit needle's head, cut 2mm under head and make it sharp (also with Dremell) and have got perfect little nail which matches perfect with holes on hinges. Then drilled by hand test hole 0,5mm, put top of this little nail in CA glue, and push it in a little hole. Just perfect. And lesson learned: Nenad, you should think earlier, before start making hinges about how to make this little nails. Also, Nenad, you should think on time about diameter of holes. And, Nenad, you should make nails first before making hinges. If you one day or ever start to use your brain, Nenad, if you had one, rudder could look much precise, neat and better

    Line of moves ... I was wondering ... It depends how much clumsy and unpatient you are. Higher level of unpatience, unneccesary hurry and hands with their own will causes higher possibility to break something. Threre are not only planes to look planing moves, we must think about ourself charactrer too Maybe first to make all such a things, then to finish all little holes and other on bulwarks, and, just before masts mount them I am not clever enough which way to chose Keep good work my friend
  17. NenadM
    Tricky work. I see on e-bay you can order another pair of eyes
  18. NenadM
    Pavel, are you really sure this is your first build? Maybe in earlier life? Great job you are doing here Hardly waiting for more progress
  19. NenadM
    And it happened again ... and again Meetings and legal consultations lasts from 08:00 untill 16;00 , after that 3 hours lasting driving home with two stop places to wake up myself, finaly at home, and ... instead to go to bed, I am on MSW looking for solution how to nail hinges to stern, at the same time future rivets to look same as on rudder , and not to break anything ... and how to get/paint devil metalic dark bronze Obviously it catched me strong Admiral filled refrigerator to very top, and wait for me tired as ... Two Amaretto glasses helps and good movie on TW with T.Hanks as captain on large cargo ship dealing with pirates

    Is something wrong in next picture: while cutting grass think about job issues,and doing your job think about how to resolve some position on your build. Or we are wrong. Or too much dedicated. Very nice build we watch here.
  21. NenadM
    If instal them too early you can crash them. Uf too late, could br impossible. Question is - when is right time?
  22. NenadM
    Rudder is finished, "only" to mount left And hinges will be "metalized" in something like dark bronze color, which can hadrly be seen on photos ( camera ...) This pictures were made throught the magnifier glass .... little more details, but it is undesired playing to get right focus Next is another two days in factory, two days of family party, and then She will be on line again

    Harry Potter III 120th time in full family circle is better therapy ... spiders, dementors, bandit's map and other with kids kiddin us and we kiddin them ... glass of old brandy ... ... full hearth
  24. NenadM
    Untill I am deep drown in rudder hinges, hardly wait for your solution of that stage, which is one of next steps in line for me too. Doris made magic with clay. Maybe ...

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.
