    Interesting, Ken. On British ships the balls on the standard compass are usually referred to as 'Kelvin's balls' after Lord Kelvin, the inventor of the (more properly called) quadrantal correctors. Also on British ships, the port ball is usually red and the starboard one green! John

    Mark, I'm not sure that even epoxy will hold them safely without any sort of mechanical assistance - there's a heck of a lot of pressure on them once the shrouds are tightened up. How about a pin or two through the planking just to assist the epoxy? 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.
