    G'day Bjørn, and another warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. John

    She does look like a real boat now, Chris. Just a thought - considering the time of year, are you going to be able to take her out for a paddle when you finish? You could always ship it over here as we're just coming into summer! John

    I agree - excellent barrels. John

    You've certainly done your homework on this, and the model is looking absolutely first class. John

    She's really looking the goods. As an aside, but relevant to the discussion above re fishermen's lives, one of my 2x great Grandmothers was from a small fishing village on the east coast of Scotland. She was a young widow when she married into my family! John

    Just found your log, Patrick. That looks a very interesting model. John

    Best way is with a template of some sort. I use a couple of scrap pieces of wood that I have joined absolutely square using an engineers square to check the angle while the glue was setting. Pieces can then be held against it while being joined. I'm sure other members will have far more sophistcated methods. John

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.
