    Kev, I admit to being guilty of those kinds of errors also. I'm glad you got it sorted.

    Go to the top of this section and there's 3 pinned posts for where to acquire the woods.

    Kev, You might have a look here and see if you can find answer to your planking problems: https://modelshipworld.com/forum/98-planking-downloads-and-tutorials-and-videos/

    Welcome back home, Kev.

    There's been at least one build were the builder used these. Do a search using the key words "coffee" "sticks" and another with "coffee" stirrers". The basic issue though is size. Depending on the scale, they may be too short, or too thick, or too wide so take that into consideration.

    The next thing we'll know is that you'll be tempted to car repairs and making aftermarket part, Chris. She's looking really good.

    Nany, nany, foo, foo..... <pouts> I'm immature, not childish.

    Fixed it.

    Welcome to MSW, Jose. Your English is fine, no apologies needed.

    Very clean and very well done, CRI-CRI. I've enjoyed following your bujld.

    I never did understand the second story door. If the snow is up that high (or close to it) would wouldn't stepping out the door lead to your being buried in the snow? Or did this assume you have snow shoes?

    I moved this to the appropriate area here on MSW.

    Will you be leaving some planks off in order to see the iron cross works?

    Your build seems to me to be way beyond many of us mere mortals. Just amazing.
  17. mtaylor
    Just beautiful, Alex. Your build is more like fine art.

    Richard, since your revising and really starting over, it would probably be best to just merge this with your other build topic on this model. Many of do have "restarts" and just continue the build log as it gives a better overall read of what worked and what didn't work. Let me know and I'll merge them for you.

    Nice work on a tiny difficult piece, Steven. On the next batch, before carving them to shape, you might try brushing on either some thin (or extra thin) CA or thin out some PVA with water and soak the wood strips first.

    Looking good, Jack. Well done on that monster stern piece.
  21. mtaylor
    Definitely a masterpiece, Marc.

    Safety? They may have heard of it.

    Hi Marty, If you'll go here the the database: https://thenrg.org/resource/articles there's an article on Basic Tools in the Materials/Tools area. Unless you're a tool-holic like many of us (yep, I seem to be one also) only buy tools after the basics as you need them.

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.
