Hi Sjors......... I'm still here ..... I'll have an update soon ( I hope !! )..... I've been really busy trying to finish up planking the hull, I've got one more band to do p&s, then I'll be finished. I have to do this while I'm still in the planking mood or else I'll never get finished . so hang in there,...... in the famous words of our beloved Gen. D. MacArthur... "I shall return".. I don't know when , but I will Frank

Mayflower by SawdustDave - Finished
riverboat replied to SawdustDave's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800
Excellent!! work Dave....... the bamboo turned out to be a good choice , I really like the way it looks , glad to hear you didn't have any problems working with it. The trim patterns came out real good as did the rest of the painting of the hull and rails. I think you might have started a new outlook for planking material . Walmart will love you for all the bamboo business you've thrown their way, who knows ,they might even offer you a part time job as a "greeter". Frank -
Look'n good Ron.... what kind of wood did you use on the natural looking planking ? It looks real nice.( as the rest of the planking too!!) 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.
