    Hey thanks Michael......... I was thinking about carving those letters out of wood, I've got a couple Dremel's I thought I would use, but after finding the right size dry transfers I chucked that idea immediately The transfers worked out real well for me...glad you liked the result. Frank

    "UP DATE TIME"......... I just finishd up the main mast rigging and put the name on the stern'''' looks like I got all of the ropes tied off to where they're supposed to be,if not I can always say the Capt. is trying out a new belaying plan. No major problems were encountered on this journey, (again, thanks to Dirks excellent build) The mizzen will be next, then I'll add the jib sails....... I still need to add ropes to the cleats and belaying pins, but that will be the last thing I do along with the oars, and the rope railing. Thanks for look'n in!! Frank Thanks again for look'n in....... Frank

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.
