Tony Why don't you post that pdf for us to check out. Michael Nice as always. Later Tim -
What you are doing looks great. Can't wait to see more. You might want to play with different feed rates on the last pass or two. Might make for a better finish. That said your finish looked good to me. Enjoy the build. A another person (different site) did a thread on cnc-ing a Sherline mill. He works in metal. A list of approx costs. 1st cnc stuff $500 - several sites can sell the motors etc under $500. 2nd program free 3rd computer hope that the one that you are reading this on can be used 4th sherline mill about $1,000. Lots of time and some building of the small parts. and it can be done. If you want details on this pm me so this thread is not high jacketed. Later Tim

Save up some more money and get it right the first time. See the Byrnes table saw link posted above. If you buy something lower you just might end up wishing you had bought the Byrnes. Later Tim

Well you thread made me remember, so I went and looked at the pics I took and thought that I would post them in a different thread. Take a look if you want to. http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/6177-seaports-and-their-forts-at-the-louvre-paris-france/?p=179294 Later Tim

This looks like it's going to be an interesting project. Hope to see a lot more of it. I took a lot of dock yards pics in the Louvre while visiting Paris. They had a huge room of dock yard setups and/or their fortications in nice diorama's. Spend about an hour looking over everything and taking pics. I don't believe that there were any English ones.

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.
