    Phil, I was always told that the term 'holystone' came from the fact that they were sometimes used without handles and the sailors therefore had to kneel to use them. When I was at sea we had blocks of sandstone that fitted into a dedicated frame with a handle and we also sanded the decks first. John

    Good to see you back in the workshop, Dan. We had one of those rotten gantry cranes on the 'Kooringa' - terrible pieces of equipment. Thank goodness someone thought of putting the container gantries on the wharf instead. 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.
