Your cutter is starting to grow, Chuck. Thanks for the photos of the Roger's Collection model - beautiful. perhaps the aftermost shroud is served because the mainsail could rub against it when she was running before a wind? John

This will be the last update for a while as we're off on holiday next week. I'm continuing to fit deck beams in the Pritt. I had hoped to get more done yesterday, but as it's school holidays here the museum was pretty crowded with lots of people stopping to see what I was doing and to ask questions. It's a little hard to see what's been happening in the photos as all the wood is the same colour, but I think these two show best what the current state of play is. John

Mike, I really don't think there is a 'right' way to cut your sheet. It all depends on the sizes of your planks. You'll have different lengths of planks as you work around the hull, so whichever way you cut you'll have at least some waste. it's just a matter of watching your lengths and making the best use of it as you go along.

Long handled surgical scissors
Jim Lad replied to RGL's topic in Modeling tools and Workshop Equipment
Greg, if you're looking for surgical tools, try a veterinarian site instead of searching 'surgical'. They're sometimes much cheaper. 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.
