    Great to see things moving ahead there, Michael. Spring must be in the air in Canada! John

    Very nice work on those sails, Nil. When I decide to build a model with sails, I now know where to send my order. John

    Well, when I'm sitting at the model maker's desk in the museum I might as well be doing something, Pat! John

    Mobbsie, the addition to the bowsprit looks top class. As for your chisels, I'm glad none of the bits ended up in you!! John

    Man, that looks good, Gil! John

    The external hull detail is really making her come alive, Danny! John

    Sygreen, You only need to post once so as not to clutter the forums. I've removed your other posts on the same subject for the sake of clarity. It's difficult to know how to advise you without knowing the sort of model you want to start with. What part of the world you live in might also help re availability of equipment. You only need to start small, buying only what tools you need as you go. The main thing is to buy good quality. Yes, they're far more expensive, but they'll do the job better and last you a lifetime.

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.
