    Thanks for your welcome and advice - having ordered the Polaris I think I shall just go for it rather than ordering other boats before it even arrives! Looking forward to getting stuck in.

    Hi there, I have toyed with the idea of building a wooden model ship for some time, but have always been put off by not knowing what tools to get. Getting a kit and all the tools at the same time always felt like a high cost of entry into the unknown. Anyway I bought an old model boat in an antique shop which needed a little fixing up. Nothing fancy and I just fettled with it really, but enjoyed doing so and ended up buying a couple of basic tools. Black Friday rolled around and after some reading up on starter boats I plumped for the Occre Polaris and ordered it and some more starter tools. Decided to see what I really need as I go along. Also wondering whether to do a really basic Viking boat before starting the Polaris, just to build skills. Anyway, looking forward to the journey and to learning much more here. Paul

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.
