    Young folks, like Sjors, are always in a hurry. Take your time Sherry....once you make THIS decision it's tough to go back !!!!!!

    Glad to see you got the rudder to your liking!

    Floyd- She measures just about 32" from bowsprit tip to the end of the staysail boom that overhangs the stern and about 11 3/8" wide at the main yard. I like a little clearance so I'm going with 36x13 on the base (inner dimensions). Height, of course, will depend on your mounting setup.

    Working on it! The blizzard hitting us today insures some quality workshop time

    Hey David- thanks for re-posting. I like your replacing of the anchor stocks with wood. I'll be doing that as well in a few months.

    You're making some real progress there, Adam. Looks good! (We don't want any more mental scars!!!!).

    I sense that you're enjoying yourself to the extent that you made me smile. I'm sure your next addition will look as well as the capstan.

    DUH! Here it is!!!!!! I'll be following. I don't care if you don't start until 2019..........but you MUST finish Rattlesnake first!!!!!!!!!
  13. augie
    WOW! Where did this come from?????????????????? Let me see if it's up as a log yet.

    Ron, I swear that color you've developed is getting richer as the days pass. And I'm glad to have those outdoor shots back......I'm the only guy in Colorado who knows what the weather in New Zealand is

    Welcome home, Roger. I'm very happy you've decided to share what photos you have with us and to continue as you complete your beautiful build. I know she's being built from scratch but I forgot the exact scale? Thank you my friend.

    Now all you need is a trip to Red Lobster!
  17. augie
    Darned, they look good!
  18. augie

    Joe- Welcome back aboard! Glad you've decided to rejoin the fleet. I will be following.
  21. augie
    Aha! Good thinking. I like the cut of your jib Thanks Daniel.
  22. augie
    Looking very shipshape Larry!
  23. augie
    I'm assuming you scribed the lines first then stained. And the stain darkened the scribes 'automatically'. Is this correct or did you use something special to darken the scribes?
  24. augie
    Getting there Bob. But I'm not patting myself on the back until this one is in the case!
  25. augie
    Always requires a little 'adjustment'. Working out great. And thanks for re-posting the history!

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.
