    Wouldn't have thought 'Billy' would have anything so sophisticated, Keith. An air vent, perhaps? John
  2. Jim Lad
    Might not have had a head. He might simply have opened a door on the side furthest from the bank! John

    Nice mast repair, Mark. That base will come up a treat. You'll just need a suitably weathered cradle for the yacht. John
  4. Jim Lad
    Coming along beautifully, Phil. John
  5. Jim Lad
    Very nicely constructed trailboards. John
  6. Jim Lad
    That's a fine looking tug, Phil. Should build into a nice model. John
  7. Jim Lad
    Very nice, John. John
  8. Jim Lad
    Up to your usual standards, mate! John
  9. Jim Lad
    Nothing like a few card templates to settle your mind before you cut the actual thing, Phil! John

    Hello Geordie, and a warm welcome to M.S.W. from down under. John
  11. Jim Lad
    Hello, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. John
  12. Jim Lad
    you seem to be moving ahead pretty quickly with this, Antony. Great progress. John
  13. Jim Lad
    That is going to be a very impressive model, mate!! John
  14. Jim Lad
    I find your metalwork just stunning! John

    Sorry I missed your first post, Keith. This must be just about the most 'original' paddle boat design ever. I'm not sure how you'll be able to top this one. How is it that eccentrics seem to be drawn to rivers and paddle boats world wide? John
  16. Jim Lad
    Nice progress. John
  17. Jim Lad
    hello Gus, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. John
  18. Jim Lad
    As Paul said, great detail, Phil! John
  19. Jim Lad
    Can't you get them at your local post office, Tom? John

    Thanks for that clarification on the deck planking. She's coming along well. John
  21. Jim Lad
    How did those hoses handle in practice, Phil. Ours were always on reels contained in a box - one hose per box - and were very fast and easy to deploy. John
  22. Jim Lad
    Coming together very nicely, John. John
  23. Jim Lad
    We learn by doing! Keep at it, mate! John
  24. Jim Lad
    Just magic, Ilhan! John
  25. Jim Lad
    It's not a race, E.J. Looking good so far. 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.
