    Hello, My name is Bruce Howe and I am hoping someone could help me with this rigging question. I finished Atlantic around 2010. It was the first serious model I made. No real tools. I just thought about it a lot and then went to work. I have many pictures of the build which I will post. I would appreciate some thoughts on how to take twisting out of some of the running rigging at the top of the gaff sails. See pictures. I think some of the supplied thread may have plastic in its construction. It's called coil set. It wasn't a problem on installation but has gotten worse over time. Any thoughts on how I might be able to repair? Thanks.

    Hello, My name is Bruce Howe. Greetings from soon to be weather unpleasant Massachusetts. I am a new member and am building Mary Taylor in honor of my brother- in law Bob Allen. I have some modeling experience but have been absent for a few years now. I have long admired this kit and hope to do it justice. My other experience with Bluejacket kits include Atlantic (I will post some pictures in the appropriate forum), Pauline, and Endeavor. I have already found many helpful hints in this forum. Looking forward to completing Mary Taylor. Thanks.

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.
