    Thanks Theo, When I put her in a case I have no place for her. And one off my co-workers fall in love with her and want to buy her. If he is buying her, he can place her in a case........ And have more room for another big one Sjors

    Little update today. I have placed the transom..... It was a little tricky because between the planking and the transom bottom there has 3 planks to go with a little curve. They where to long so I thought I made a mistake. So right away I send Mobbsie a whats app to see what's going on. And I make no mistake. They are longer then necessary so you can trim it the right size I have to send it a little more and give it a touch up with the paint. Painting in the evening is never a good idea !!!!!! That's it for today Have a lovely sunday. Sjors

    Hi Daddy Nick, Maybe you can put a little water on it or are you using waterproof glue ? It should be not a big fix. Good luck with it ! Sjors

    @ Wayne, Thank you !!! My ships are to big for the channels.....maybe the North sea ??? I have a few (2) options for coming builds. One is coming in parts every month and the other one I'll be waiting for the release...... @ Augie, Thank you very much !!!!! It can take a few years before I can put the Aggy next to this fleet. But who cares.....we have all the time of the world ( I hope ) @ Mobbsie, Also thanks !! I will enjoy the Champagne ! Are you joining it with me ?????

    Thank you all ! Also for the likes..... @ Randy, Thanks ! I'm proud of what I have done ! She is big and I thought when you are building a big one, it's gonna be easy. I was wrong !!!!!! Because she is big you see really everything. yep, also the mistakes but I'm learning. @ Grant, I keep it with one beer otherwise the bowsprit is ending up at the stern. The Aggie finished soon ? I don't think so ! And thanks ! @ Ulises, Thank you also. And yes, it feels great. Also it feels a little sad....if there is nothing to do anymore..... And there is, the Aggy @ Tim, Thank you very much ! And as you can see in my signature, I have all ready another build. The Agamemnon from Caldercraft. @ Daddy Nick, Thank you also ! And if you don't mind, I'm not finishing Augie He is to big for me ! I will go back to the Aggy and nope, not finished in a few days...... That can take a few years !!!!!! The dark side is still far away for me but you never know.....some where in the future @ Larry, Also thank you for the kind words. @ Nils, Thanks for the words in my own langue ! I am proud and it looks terrific those 3 ships together. The models are now back in there own place. Guarding the house...... @ Sam, Thanks ! Be careful with the klompen. When you are not used to it to walk or dance on it you can brake a few bones. And that's something we don't want, do we ?? Robert, Also thank you !!!! @ Jason, Thanks !!! I think I take that picture as my avatar Sjors

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.
