Hi Jim, I was surprised that Adeline ( Padeen ) ask me if she can join the fan club….. You are the second one who's starting the day with a smile because of something I said. So be my guest and join my fan club And I can post pictures, no problem at all, but that has nothing to do with building……. Then i get a warning from one of those Moderator things, and one of those I live together with……. So i have to be careful…….there is already a sign in the house that is saying….WARNING POINTS! I don't know what she is meaning by that. Do you know that?

Or it is just what Jim is saying…... All the crew members are right handed! (Use that as an excuses )

Hi my friend , I have take a look at the drawings of the SI and they have only ratlines at the lower mast and middle mast, above that there are only shrouds…... To late with your advice….I have to see how I get the holes in it now. The coronation was just great. Hi Danny, I'm not in panic….( yet ) Still have to do all the shrouds at the lower mast. So take your time to take a look for me. Thanks in advance ( learn a new word ? I think I write an E-Mail to Corel to ask if the guy that makes the drawings are drinking at that time…...
-
I found something out again….. I hate those drawings from Corel. The next thing happened…. I was looking at the drawing and see the shrouds going on the lower part of the main mast. Then in the middle of the main mast there is also shrouds, but no holes to put the deadeyes in. And on top of that there are also coming shrouds and yes….no place to put in the deadeyes! I have to drill holes ( I think ) into the cross beams. I hope that that is correct…... This build really gives me an headache ….. But i shall finished her!
-
That looks really great Augie, You are doing a great job with the rigging! And thanks for the pictures

He Wayne, You are awake I'll take my time and pictures coming in a few days or weeks or months! I prommissed you, this year

Morning Garward, I know that i have to ask more questions but I think I'm a real man….. It's the as you have a new technical thing. First try everything before you read the manual. I know that I have to look forward but when you start building ,at this kit, you don't must start with page one of the drawings but page 17…... They only tells you to glue part a to part B. Why give you measurements? See what you like and put it there. You want to build this kit…... When I get back to the San Ildefonso, I know I have a lot of questions for you! So be prepared…...

Hi Garward, Thank you for your reply. I'm glad that your are back and I accept your apology. Let us just leave this behind us and get back to the build. Danny showed me a picture how it should be and yes, it is a big difference with what I have done. The chains on my Mirage are soldered at the end and in there they made a tiny hole to attach the chain to the hull. When I cut the chains shorter, I see no way to attach them to the hull. I wanted to change it but I didn't know how, for me this was the only way. That's why I left it the way it is now. Thanks again for your reply. Sjors

I see I'm to late…….. Nice, nice and nice! I didn't know that 0,20 euro cents are that big! When you start your next buildlog, I will place the popcorn machine. And you can ask Wayne if he put the bar there. So Andy is also happy!

Congratulations Jim! Wonderful build! Don't let me wait to long for the next ship that you build. And beside, you can do both at the same time……. Or you do just like Robbyn…..She is building a longboat and the Syren together. I hope she don't mix the parts

Hi Adeline, I bring my own popcorn and I see that there is a seat available next to Andy. Nice kit you've got there! And I also see that you are using the Dremel workbench as a standard for your ship Very handy tool isn't it? I will follow you further on. And by the time you are on the ratlines, you can take a look at the Mirage how it works. Or do you also want the gnomes? Question…..can you post a picture of the Fly?( not a real one but from the box) I see that you live in Rome or are you Italian? My grandmother comes from Italy, so I'm a part Italian

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.
