    Fantastic work. Looks amazing.

    Glued and fitted the bulkheads. Unfortunately I didn't tack them in place. My first mistake of many more to come. So I had a bunch of warping. Made spacers and with a little steam and heat I fixed it up. Lesson learned the hard way.

    I have been checking out every build of this ship. Reference them often.

    Pre-fit the bulkheads. Want to glue in place but I was nervous about it.

    Hi, I am new to building wooden ships. This is my first build. I was gifted this kit. I know it's quite advanced for a newbie but I am diving in. Unboxing and I am already overwhelmed. I am also new to the site. I started building back in January 2025. I have made a lot of mistakes but learning every time I work on it. I have completed the planking, the deck planking and have built most of the deck parts.

    Finally getting the hang of building these small deck pieces. This chain box actually fits the drawing and is nice and square. Nice to see improvement in my work. 20251115_010640.thumb.jpg.955d965a2fe51497d3b742088174159d.jpg

      Nice work, you may want to start a build log by the year of the boat you are building found in the forum page. You will get a better response from other members:-)

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.
