    nice work on the belaying pins and good idea for the "lathe" for yard turning
  2. Jasseji
    indeed, but i have my doubts how often i can do that before the socket is damaged, you dont need to take out the nut (only buy more nuts) Anyway, i am looking now to replace all the screws with butterfly-screws
  3. Jasseji
    I actually have a Comment on the instructions @James H, regarding steps 7, 12 and 20. I have placed the Nuts in the Hex-Holes same as in step 8, this way it seems easier to remove the screw if repositioning of the clamp is needed - perhaps for the holders from step 7 and 20 it is not that important, as you would only unscrew them a bit to change the angle/position but in case of the front and back holder (step 12) i would rather suggest to place the nuts in the cutouts - this screw will be more often taken out and you might damage the socket if you do it a few times. Also you can see on this pictures, that's how Wojciech has it on his site: http://www.hobbyzone.pl/data/gallery/256_600x600.jpg http://www.hobbyzone.pl/data/gallery/253_600x600.jpg

    @czabel i personally would take at least the running rigging apart, especially due to the fact, that you need access to fix those tops, yards and booms. Also i think part of the standing rigging should be corrected - the masts seem to be misaligned so at least the stays should be checked. The Shrouds themselves are most painful to redo because of the ratlines but they seem fine, might need to be tightened a bit but you can do that on the chainplates or deadeye lanyards (that's what they are for actually)

    These gun Carriages look much better than those on the Vanguard, but still it is not 100% historical how a carriage should look...
  6. Jasseji
    yes, anyone would love that
  7. Jasseji
    Although i do not really like how some things turned out, i made few mistakes which i cannot correct now without dismantling the Gundeck, i am determined to finish the decks though but i am already looking forward to make another cross-section (the Triton especially) and i hope next week i can start a full POB Build (depending if i can get the frames by then)
  8. Jasseji
    yes, we did the same during a re-enactment in Danzig, the Tackle was once used during a misfire (well, tackle-ish thing) I did not plan to do the full mast, i am still deciding if to do the full lower mast or just a cut section. These are the options i am thinking about: 1. Lower mast with Top, Shrouds, futtocks, main yard (or cut section of main yard) 2. Only lower mast without top and no shrouds 3. half of lower mast with some reinforcement rings

    Gratings ready, cannon Carriages glued and prepared for painting
  10. Jasseji
    First Grating in place of Pumps and one cannon re-rigged. Opinions please !!! Also i am wondering, should i attach the inhaul tackle ? As logic and experience with guns dictates (i am a Re-Enactor dealing with artillery, 17th century and Napoleonic Eras) the inhaul tackle would get entangled during normal operation with recoil, and i would personally only attach it when i really need to pull the gun in (misfire, firing aborted, need to close gunports due to weather etc.) I saw a discussion somewhere on this but cant find the topic now
  11. Jasseji
    So, no more excuses putting it off, Gratings and Cannon Barrels arrived from RBModel today: I dont like the Pumps supplied with the kit, hence i decided to put Gratings in their place (also to accomodate Shot racks)
  12. Jasseji
    Tak, faktycznie, to stanowi problem (chodzi o budowę według instrukcji oraz o tłumaczenia - jakby co to służę pomocą przynajmniej w tłumaczeniach) Back to English: dziadek4444 is building it for the Polish deAgostini Catalogue and has to follow the instructions as stated
  13. Jasseji
    yes, indeed they are, you can check the Plans Online: https://www.model-space.com/gb/build-the-vasa.html Part 6, Page 280

    Hello, i am wondering if this will be the right section, i am planning a build based on a POB kit. Some parts of the kit will be used (framing, laser-cut stern and false decks as i lack the machinery to cut large parts) but all the Planking, fittings, masts, rigging will be replaced - is this still considered a kit, Semi-Scratch, or even maybe Kit-Bash ?
  15. Jasseji
    Sorry guys, let me jump in with Polish here. @Hubac's Historian i checked the instructions, and indeed they tell you to do the planking on the whole keel, stem and sternpost Witaj @dziadek4444, Przede wszystkim powiem, że wspaniała robota to plankowanie, naprawde kunszt W instrukcjach DeAgostini, zeszyt numer 4. elementy numer 81-84, od strony 240 i potem dalej zeszyt 6 od strony 280 punkt 4 do 9. Jest to ewidentny błąd w instrukcjach, jeśli by ci się udało w jakiś sposób usunąć to plankowanie i spróbować nakleić przynajmniej na dziobie i rufie pojedynczy płat drewna, to byłoby to chyba wykonalne ? Ewentualnie w Marketach budowlanych są dostępne pasty do zaklejania dziur w drewnie (trociny drobne lub miał drewniany wymieszane z klejem lub żywicą) to możnaby tym zamalować i potem przeszlifować żeby sprawiało wrażenie jednolitego kawałka drewna.
  16. Jasseji
    indeed, but that makes the model (even with display-case) totally unstable - imo too tall, so IF i do the mast, i will only do it up to the top and MAYBE add the Main Yard. I have another project in view, this was just a warmup
  17. Jasseji
    Thanks James, i appear to be on a good track to finish this at least up to the Weather Deck, will see about the Mast&Rigging
  18. Jasseji
    Nice, happy to see Polish products advertised like this I have just received my Professional Building Slip today and will be putting it together
  19. Jasseji
    Oh, you get stuff from Hobbyzone now to play around, neat
  20. Jasseji
    Tiny bit of progress - finished the outer hull and started coppering, i am waiting for Gratings and more Cannon barrels to be delivered. The Carronades are a kitbash from Mamoli Carriages and Caldercraft Barrels
  21. Jasseji
    Beautiful work and great idea on the Cutout (might steal it :D) Would you be so kind to tell, where did you get those plans for the frames from ?
  22. Jasseji
    I can only add, i own several of their products (workshop system, paint holders) and it's always a pleasure to receive them
  23. Jasseji
    Lego Technic ? I wish my son would be old enough so i'd have an excuse to buy
  24. Jasseji
    @mtaylor yes, thank you, i saw this, unfortunately i was looking more into Chucks price ranges as i dont really need motorised stuff, well, will just have to dish out the extra bucks and order from the US
  25. Jasseji
    Nice Start, keep it up

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.
