    I MUST get new glasses then......

    I'm in as I've not seen any of their models if I remember right. Interesting on the box art... the bird is flying, firing all guns and no visible crew.

    And the ever popular demolition derbies. I remember one, only because the driver was a friend of my dad, who entered his 6 month old Lincoln in one after complaining about it for the previous 6 months to the dealer about it being a lemon. It was heavily targeted as everyone went after that car.

    Frank, When you're ready, do open a log in the kit area for this model. Thanks, Mark

    Micha is spot on. Back in the day, all drawings were either rolled into a tube or stored flat in large drawers. One place I worked weve hung the ones currently in use on a clothes line stretched in the either the archive room or the copy room.

    You might take a deep breath and dive into the stash and see if the tire was misplaced in another box. But, the jack stand is a great idea.

    The look of that beast brings back memories.... one variation was the so-called "outlaw" class, if I remember right. Good times on Friday and/or Saturday nights at the oval tracks.

    I think you're right... And maybe a chrome valve cover?

    Welcome aboard Eric. You've chosen wisely on the path to success with the starter kits.

    Very well done and the dio just adds a lot.

    Finally an update. I'm reading and re-reading the instructions and looking at other logs of this ship. And I currently have all the framing (I think) done. About to start marking the top lines of the frames. Hopefully I get more time to spend on this project but seems real life keeps dragging me off.

    Welcome to MSW, John. You Albatros came out very well.

    He's right Micha. Goto the front page and scroll to the bottom past all the topics to just below the Stance on Piracy area and you will see a box with statistic in it (the number of members in that box) and below that is a box with "Who's online".

    Happy birthday, Craig.

    Just a note on the Frolich book.... it is more for French ships than U:S or English as there are some differences in ship design and all the equipment just as gun rigging, stoves, crew accommodations, etc, Having said that...it is a great reference and well worth at least a read.

    Very true, OC. I wish I was half that good.
  23. mtaylor
    I too thought it was the model and had forgot about yours being yellow. I need a new brain....

    Welcome to MSW Klas, Feel free to start a build log in the kit area for your Sherbourne as it's the best way to get help and meet other modelers.

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.
