Thanks Lawerence...David B....Denis(Popeye).... Tony...Dimitris and Don for your comments, always appreciated.... just a little update as to the rigging. A lot of ropes are starting to accumulate and I'm still a little confused as to where they're going to tye off at.........I think I'll just let them fall, and where ever they land is where their home will be ....... just kidding. ..... I'll try to get some sembelence of order so it looks like I know what I'm doing Here's a couple pictures showing the start of CONFUSION!!! As always ...Thanks for look'n in.... Frank

UPDATE TIME....... just a small one ....... progress is being made !!!.... bowsprit is finished and foremast is almost finished..... all blocks and lines are attached, I want to mount the yards first before the back stays are set...... the ropes coming down from the yards have to be attached at the foot of the mast the back stays would be a pain if they were in the way. Right? .... of course..... the second shot is a little out of focus (sorry).... I don't know what happened, I asked my camera and it didn't know either, something got messed up!! Any how , here's whats going on.... Thanks for looking in... Frank These are the mizzen fore stays... they are huge!!!

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.
