    Interesting source of timber for your deck - and you're certainly making a good job of it. John
  2. Jim Lad
    That is looking so good, Keith! John

    Lovely job, Phil! John

    You're making a nice job of that, Paul. John

    Just found your log, Paul. That will make a very interesting model. John

    Helo, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. That kit makes into a very nice little model - a great one to start on. John

    Coming along very nicely. John

    Vaddoc, it's great to see that you're pushing ahead in spite of the multitude of difficulties you're currently experiencing! John

    Thanks Keith! John

    The advantage of building a model like our museum's 'Duchess' is that we can bypass all the hype and written opinion and simply study the available photos carefully! 🙂 John

    Thanks for that link, Steven! John

    A delightful piece of miniature engineering! John

    Another update. All the headsails are now completed, although I may re-run one of the fore topmast staysail sheets - we'll see. A start has been made on the main staysails, so it hopefully won't be too long before I can cross the first yard. There are still quite a few other outstanding jobs to do other than rigging, however I'd like to get at least one yard crossed so that visitors can get more of an idea of where the model is going.

    A very nice planking job. John

    I'm probably biased as all our local historical paddle steamers were side wheelers with the notable exception of one, which was designed by and American living over here! 😀 John
  19. Jim Lad
    A very competent job of planking! John
  20. Jim Lad
    Looking good, Keith! Maybe you should try a side wheeler for a change! 😉 John
  21. Jim Lad
    Nice progress, Jeff. John
  22. Jim Lad
    I know the feeling, mate! 🙂 John
  23. Jim Lad
    Truly delightful, Gary. John

    You're doing some amazing work with that printer, Jerry! 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.
