    You are a good man Keith Black.

    I can only second the above comments. That is some fine (and very inspirational) work, Maurice.

    That is some fine woodwork, Mark. Very nicely done! You must have had a great sense of accomplishment having competed this as well as you did.

    Reading your posts just makes me so aware of how much I don't know about all this It is fun to learn though, especially with fine builds like this.

    I need me some of those quad hands! Nice work indeed, Glenn.

    You have come along very nicely, Ronald. She is looking fantastic. Your patience with this build is certainly paying off.

    Guys, I have had a few messages asking if I am OK. The answer is yes, I am still out here With summer upon us, I am busy in what is now my flourishing garden. It is a lot warmer here than it was in the Shenandoah Valley where we moved from last year and my newly formed garden is already producing. On top of that I am having to learn the peculiarities of fishing on the Potomac river. It is all new to me, so the learning curve there regarding rig setups and where to fish depending on what I want to catch is still quite steep. I have made some progress on the Lynx, I just have not posted anything yet, my bad. The cap rails are on and the fender rails have also been fitted. We are expecting rain this weekend, so we will see if I can't get some work done in the shipyard. When the weather is as nice as it has been (apart from a few days of extreme heat), I cannot sit inside while the fish are jumping out in the bay outside my window

    Tom, you did a fantastic job with those davits! They look great, truly. When the time comes, I am so going to steal your idea!! Nice work indeed.

    She inspires me anew, John. Sometimes it's the journey and not the destination that is important. I am certainly enjoying this one.
  24. SaltyScot
    Had to chuckle at that one, B.E.
  25. SaltyScot
    Absolutely! If you ever have any questions, don't be afraid to ask! There are plenty of good folk here who would be only too happy to help.

  27. SaltyScot
    A warm welcome to MSW. With a build like that you are off to a very good start!
  28. SaltyScot
    What an amazing thing to be able to accomplish. My hat comes off to you, sir. Very nice indeed.

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.
