Hi All Now after 6 weeks of high sunshine, where time has been spent outdoors, it now time for a little update.The first picture shows my work table without any mess, it will probably be the last time it will happen. picture 2 and 3 show The three section bulkhead shapes and 13 out of the 32 bulkheads and last but not least some of the wood I received from Jason from Crown Timberyard last week. It's only when you stand with the part between your hands you get an idea how big this model will be , the ruler is 100 cm long and the 2 bulkheads in the middle are 41 cm wide. Michael

Hi Druxey Yes, you're right, I've looked up drawings back from 1705 until 1820 and they all show the same thing, like this one from 1728 Michael

minimini replied to albert's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800
Hi Albert that really nice work Michael -
now I think is time for a little up date on this model, I decided to throw the old model out and start over again why ? because I made too many mistakes as I made the first drawings, so instead of to constantly correct errors on the error on the old model I decided to start over. I've created a set of new drawings and finish cutting the new parts the last image is of the false keel of a Danish 74 scale 1:48 the small model is a Danish gunboat also in 1:48 Regardes Michael

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.
