    That's a fine work table Popeye, Is there anything that you can not make??????
  2. Sjors
    Hi Theo, Nice table saw you have there…... And I see that you are moving a little to the dark side….. Great doors! A real improvement!

    I'll be sitting next to Mark and don't say a thing…... Can you give me a beer Mark? Waiting makes thirsty….

    Doris, I want to say something again but every word that I write gives not the expression that I want. I just sit here and enjoy your work.

    Hi Adrieke, When you are going to sand, are you using a tool or just a file? I have bought a little sanding machine called a mouse and that works perfect.

    Thanks John, Then you fix it right
  7. Sjors

    Hi Grant and Sherry, Thank you both I'm pleased so far and almost feel sorry to put he into dry dock…... I think when I go further on the SI, I can do the rigging at the same time with the Le Mirage. Not 25.00 ratlines but 50.000 ratlines at the same time……... No, I don't think so. I'm gonna be crazy then!

    Thanks Patrick, I think I can start tomorrow again on the Le Mirage because I have to go for work in one hour….. I have the late shift, so in day time I can work a little on her.

    Your welcome Augie….. It's nice to see it with a few parts of the furniture on it.
  11. Sjors
    Looks nice again John. Wich part have you redo? You know, when I see the pattern of the planking, it looks like a jigsaw puzzle…...
  12. Sjors
    I shall give one to your father , so you know how it feels and looks in real
  13. Sjors
    Very nice traps Popeye, I can almost see the lobsters inside…..
  14. Sjors
    Thanks Carl for dropping in. How is your build going?
  15. Sjors
    That's correct Sarah, You have them at home?

    Hi Popeye, For you also the answer to your question, Here it is... All is dry fitted because I need to make the samson post and I still have no lathe. This will be the last update for a while for the San Ildefonso. She goes into dry dock and back to the Le Mirage.
  17. Sjors
    Her it comes Sarah, You ask and I deliver
  18. Sjors
    Hi Popeye, Your Admiral is the greatest! Quick order they deadeyes before she change her mind…...
  19. Sjors
    Thanks John, I thought I was finished , but it turns out that I need two more…... So I've make them and can placed them this afternoon. Then a little clear coat and the last picture for this moment at this build. The Mirage is screaming that she wants also attention I can not ignore that!
  20. Sjors
    Here is a little update. The gratings are finished and have to go on the deck. When that is done and I dry fit all the deck furniture I shall make other pictures and then the San Ildefonso is going into dry dock for a while. I go then back to the Le Mirage.

    Hi Doris, Anja (my wife) is telling me that I have to take a look at your build. So here I'am…. She don't say to much. This is an incredible,amazing and wonderful build. It's hard to believe that this is card. When I was young ( few years ago) I can make a paper plane and that's it. I didn't know that there was also a possibility to make ships from card. A specially the ships you are creating. Are you for sure you are from this planet???? I will follow this journey to the end. Thanks for showing me this!
  22. Sjors
    I think I can combine it? Go to Mesa Verde and Crater lake…... The only hill/mountians we have are the stairs to go above…...
  23. Sjors
    You know Mark, Building makes hungry and our hospitality is tremendous. So take a seat and join us with the food.
  24. Sjors
    A dream fall into parts……….no fishing
  25. Sjors
    That's the way to do it Theo, both….balsa and get the wood wet. And the balsa is not cheating but it works better for the planking.

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.
