Hey howya goin all, if you are still looking for pledge floor care aka Future aka Klear the original one, give this page a look Polish Up <--- Click Here, hes the only one in Australia that gets it in anymore, he got a shipment in not to long ago but hes sold out now, use the contact us page to email him to see if hes getting anymore in. Pledge Floor Care Multi Surface Floor Finish is the newest version and is said to be better then the last version because the last is said to start to turn you model yellowish over time. -

Eddie replied to Eddie's topic in Modeling tools and Workshop Equipment
Hey howya goin all, thanks, a few people say they are a good thing to get so I've decided to get one, don't know what brand to get yet but I'm leaning towards the Jet Benchtop Oscillating Spindle Sander and thanks agian. -
Hey howya goin all, I've been debating whether to get an Oscillating Spindle Sander or not, I'm looking at two types the Triton Oscillating Spindle Sander 450W <--- Click Here or the Jet Benchtop Oscillating Spindle Sander <---Click Here, the Jet one does cost more but it has a tilting table, I do have a sanding drums for my drill press but the chuck is not to straight so it does wobble alittle I will be replaceing the drill press sometime in the future, what do you think about Oscillating Spindle Sander?

Hey howya goin all, I did these awhile back when I got my plans from NRG. I had the plan of the frames copyed, then cut them up then scanned and printed out on ladeling paper. Ones cut from the copyed plans. Ones scan to the ladeling paper. This last pic you can see the scans on the ladeling paper I pulled one corner off so you can see it's sticky on one side that way after I glue the frames together I can easily stick it down to them and run them through a scroll saw. I also have another copy to stick to the sheet of wood to cut them out of.

Hey howya goin Danny mate, yeah I know how hard Ebony is, I'll steam bend it, I do like a challenge, I'll have to make a new steamer set up my last steamer I left were I uses to work many many years ago. Yeah I remember when you started that one, I was new to MSW forums, I asked you if you wouldn't mind me making the same one as I could follow your build as a guide for mine, but I never ended up make it. All these years and I still haven't scratch build a ship, I picked these scratch build ship because I didn't want to do any research on it, I just love to build. I was going to scratch build the Rattlesnake by Harold M. Hahn for my first one, there was these rooms on the plans I didnt know what they looked like I ask if anyone new any reference books on building her got not answer so I shelved the plans for now. I was think of getting it from Crown Timber in the US, The Ebony I don't know yet.

Hey howya goin E.J. mate, hahaha. Well there is one thing I forgot to mention in the first post, this is not the first time I've started this build, the first time I got to plank the hull but for some reason it started to warp and I couldn't get it to straighten up no matter what I did, so after it been siting on my shelf for so many years the hull ended up in the bin, I always wanted to build her agian so I kept the old box and stuff so now I have two of everything from the first deck upwards hahaha. The top one is the new kit.

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.
