    Try with medical pean and little pieces of sandpaper. Slow, but under magnifier, precize and it works well From one of my older posts I needed little rasp (2 mm) to correct traces of glue, to thin hinges, and to round corners of hinges. It was impossible on table before glueing ( less than 1x2 mm). I am blind for that, and hardly find that little pieces on desk, so I take my hidden toy, make some jig-rasp with sandpaper 280, and it works well I hope this helps N

    Be happy, Mark, you do not have "oh crap" things. With me there are a lot of "you idiot" things

    It is hard to get equal 78 longitudinal holes without standing drilling tool, or very calm and precize hand. One tip, if you do not mind: when you make them ans when you are satisfied, do not takw macro photos, you will se that them are not equal and not on right position, and you will not be satisfied. Watch whole thing from some distance if you dont want to get in perpetum mobile of remaking

    No progress today ... some bad news about one my client/friend let me down, spiced with complex new Labor Law which I had to study and learn very fast (one of main fields of my work). But life must go on, and now at 22:00 I can finally think about future scroll saw works ... one eye to phenomenal Billy Crystal one man show on TV ... He is really something !

    How much to learn, and how much ideas to pick up in this log ! Nenad

    Last picture : is this for white panels?
  11. NenadM
    Just found your new build and joined to public Nenad
  12. NenadM
    And we can not wait to see pictures of planking
  13. NenadM
    Ah, Bob, my idea was to sit back and see what you come up with steps in front of me ....
  14. NenadM
    But it seems I am not alone ....

    Denis, I think you are always here somewhere peek over my shoulder and looking into my head. As always, it seems you again read my mind. This evening, doing boring, not so much creative job ( plates plates plates), hanging my head with one and all and listening some radio drama, I suddenly became aware that I must do stern ornaments BEFORE final rotation of Her Majesty. Later this could be almost impossible. So, another thing to bang my head - how, to hell, to do this, to meet my expectations and my vision how this must look. I have some ideas ( tinny rope, tinny wire ...) particularly seeing Doris log with masterpieces done with modeler Clay. Many tests has to be made, also many experiments, many logs on MSW to visit and study, considering very tricky curved surface on stern. And I want this to look as much as possible as on real ship ..... Hmmmmm Today progress (until Princess call me to eat pancakes she made)
  16. NenadM
    Yes, yes, yes, here am I Considering I moved my office to home, when I wrote something, Google Chrome on my PC is always present, and it is very easy (and hard to resist) to jump to MSW every time bumped on my mind ... addiction disease to MSW I can not help myself ...
  17. NenadM
    Brave move Maybe is time to think about some extra weight of your model ?
  18. NenadM
    I agree with Bob, just to add: Be brave and go over a kit instructions on every place you want and feel it needs to ( ha ha ha, it is called "kit bashing" AND IT IS FIRST STEP TO DARK SIDE ... welcome ! )
  19. NenadM
    Neither did I, and run in deeeeeep problems later
  20. NenadM
    Keith, I had same problem. It seems that old TEHNODIDAKTA plans and your plans have identical source for copying and stealing ideas. I did not like this, and considering some other mistakes I made, I decided for drastic move of everything on deck which allowed me to do it on almost correct way. That was stage when first planking layer of hull was set, main aft and rear deck also on place , and whole model was pretty well fixed, so I could play removing deck bulwarks without consequences for stability of model But I am sure you do not like how will look patching of "holes" in deck planking after removing this parts. So, if you decide to remove them, you must count with re-planking whole deck. Maybe this situation is good, if you plan to put waterways along deck, freing ports and metal stanchions with rings BTW, nice work is rising here nenad
  21. NenadM
    Material looks very fine It seems that bulwarks are to much separated, which can cause some problems during planking. Do you intend to apply second layer of planking ? If yes, do not worry to much. If no, planking is very delicate stage for final look of model Possible options and solutions for those spaces - filling spaces with something and then get right shape by sanding/cutting - add extra bulwarks BTW - before planking check out all lines of future decks, longitudinal axis of whole model, equal width of every imaginary cross section through the model, to be where them have to be

    Gyula Hard welcome to CS fleet. Prepare Admiral for long waiting ... and take your time, and above all, enjoy in exploring, researching and playing Waiting for your progress and photos, questions, comments and good time on MSW Nenad

    "Dremel like" tool helps a lot in work, particulary if you have elastic pipe attachment with smaller jaw head on end (sorry for my english). I got Einhel complet for birthday in april 2013, and I am still delighted what can be done with this
  24. NenadM
    I like this !!!
  25. NenadM
    And attack from stern to the left side of hull begun !!!

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.
