    Hello Afonso, and a warm welcome to MSW. I can't recommend a kit for you but, as John said, what you want to do is definitely feasible - just add a little care and patience! John

    Hello Elroy, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. A quick search of Google tells me that a qajaq is a Greenland kayak - is that right? John

    Hello, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. Please start your own build log for your model - that makes life much easier. I certainly agree that those are beautiful steam launches. John

    Very neat looking metalwork! John
  21. Jim Lad
    Wouldn't do it if I didn't love it, Keith. Of course if anyone is really interested and mentions a possible desire to try building, I recommend a certain model building web forum! John
  22. Jim Lad
    Thanks, mate. I see working at the museum as a good opportunity to 'spread the word' about our wonderful hobby. A lot of people who stop to chat are really interested. John

    The internal planking creeps slowly ahead - more slowly than usual of late as we've had school holidays here and the museum has been full of families - which is great, except that I don't get much done between talking to people! Now that the kids are back at school it might go a tiny bit faster. John
  24. Jim Lad
    Always a very tricky piece of work, Keith. Looks like you've got it OK. John
  25. Jim Lad
    What a little beauty, mate! 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.
