    Hello dear friends, thank you, I am honored to read your words. I'm very happy about that. Today I started making the double blocks for the backstays. These were attached to the channels. The detail for mounting on the channels has not yet been finally clarified. If you could provide hints and suggestions or pictures, I would be very grateful. Here is a corresponding photo of the model from the Musée de la Marine. Photographed by Wefalck:

    Hello Albert, Carl, Nils, Paul, Micheal, thank you for always checking my report, and all others for the LIKES too. The guide blocks are now on the model at the place at the main mast and the foremast. Here are a few pictures. Before I work on the standing rigging, I have to make a few blocks for the backstays. These are fixed on the channels.

    Hello, after a short break, the report continues again. First of all, I would like to thank you for the nice comments and the many LIKES. Today I'll show you how to make the ninepin blocks. These are located behind the foremast and the mainmast. These are single and double blocks, which are guided on an iron bar. The fittings I manufacture from brass strips with a width of 0.8 mm.

    @cog Hello Carl, do not worry, I will focus on the last parts of the model now. Then I do the rigging. I also want to build another model in this life ...

    @cog Hello Carl, here I show a comparison of both steering gears. I think that now it is better I promise: I will not grumble any more ...

    @JOUFF @cog Thanks for the kind words. It continues with the construction of the steering gear. The previous version was also not satisfactory. Here I show the trial assembly. Only when it can be ensured that everything fits, then the steering gear comes on the ship model.

    Happy New Year! I had made the steering wheel for the La Creole some time ago. In the meantime, I am no longer satisfied with it. So I decided to do it again. Here are some pictures:

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.
