Hi Adrieke, I' ve send a few monkey's your way…... With my San Ildefonso i also have not an English translation. I ask OcCre about it and they said….no! So I'm "reading" the pictures and it works just fine. If needed I can use Google translation. Not the hole line but a few words. Otherwise it is Chinese to me

Hi Peter, Nice progress on your ship. And a very nice standard! That felt is a good idea.

Hi Robbyn, You are very buzzy indeed. Good job on the gun ports. Are there coming false canons in it or only the lids?

Augie, You know how many times at the day I'm running upstairs?????? To many times…... In one hour I go to work and have some rest……. Just turning a steering wheel…... Still the rigging take some time. Much other stuff to do! I have looked at the drawings for the rigging and maybe I skip that part I like open space... @ David, That's not a bad idea. I send the Mirage on a world tour and everybody makes him/her contribution on the rigging. Let see…..we have now 3374 members so I think that will work Who wanna be the first one?

Hi Wim, I think everyone is looking forward to the rigging. Specially when they don't have to do it It 's gonna take a few days before I'm in to that.

Thanks Sherry, Popeye, Robbyn,Mark, @ Sherry, There are indeed long masts…..It shows me what I have to do with the ratlines…..long work! I think I will count the knots to see how many there are….. @ Popeye, My workshop is almost 3 meters high…I think I have to cut a hole in the roof when I'm done. @Robbyn, Please send me your SF by E-mail, I hope I received in one piece @Augie, When you take a look at google street view , you see a view Monks in the front of my house, ready for ratline tying……. @Mark, I think that you know where I live, The fruit jetty is close by so the bananas are coming inn every day. The zoo is also close by so I can hire some monkey's……..or I'll ask a few members of MSW to help me

Hi Robbyn, That look as a real beauty to me! Don't get to nervous about broken things….. It's wood and you can repair it. It's not fun but most of the time, it looks better after the repair. I think dark forces are involved with that. Something don't like it and it have to break, so it's good when you repair it. Make this any sense????????

Hi Sarah, Pictures…….. And you started on the ratlines So almost to an end….. When you've got the feeling to tie them, I have 2 ships that also need some ratlines so when you are in the mood………be my guest! Only one thing…….are your ratlines not to far away from each other? I mean…..when you look at pictures, the distance between the ratlines are closer to each other then yours. They have a squire and yours not….. Maybe you can put an other one between those who already there? Now they need long arms to get up……..

Hi Augie, Thank you! I have to put her on the ground otherwise I need a chair to make the picture Thanks Andy, I don't carrie her much around. The masts are at a save place at the moment. When everything is done I replaced them and then……careful! David, Also thanks! I think when I see something real on the horizon, I'm running….or sailing

Thanks John, Without the rigging, she is impressive….. Thanks Grant, The rigging stage……. I have to do a little bit more stuff like the chainplates and the canon lids and a few other furniture on the deck. Then it is rigging time. I'm happy that I still have the SI, when I have enough of the rigging. Or I just finished her first. I don't know yet!

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.
