Marvellous work, Kees. The LEDs will most certainly bring the ship to life. I'm looking forward to the photos/video once they're in. Cheers Patrick

Hi everyone! Many thanks for all the comments and Likes! Tonight, as promised to Greg The Peg Leg Sailor, I've taken a couple of photos of the chairs in my hand. I've also done the dining chairs that go with the dining table in the main saloon...all eight of them. I hope you enjoy the following photos. Cheers Patrick

Thanks Greg! I hope all's well with you and your family. Stay tuned and I'll post a few photos of the chairs in my giant hand! Thanks Denis!! Hi Nenad - Many thanks. All I can say is that ant-workers are looking pretty happy, at the moment! Hi Mark. Sorry to do that to ya! Tis fun working at this scale, though (well, for me, anyway!). Hi Carl. You're right! I actually put Majellan in the water the other day and, guess what? She very promptly sank!!!! Too heavy up top...Oh well.

Hi Denis As an avid follower of this build log, there's no doubt that it's certainly been a roller coaster ride, and a truly enjoyable one for sure. I like where the Tree Boat's hull is heading. Of course, with the original hull, the bonus is that your Andrea Gail will now have a sister, as well. Nice! Cheers Patrick

Hi Frank If I were you, I'd leave the starboard side completely unplanked. Why? Why cover up such beautiful and intricate work on the frames. Show it off, I say! But, that's just my opinion, of course... Cheers Patrick

Hi Vaddoc Great to see you back at the drawing board. I was beginning to wonder where you were at with the design work, but, as can be seen from your update, you're well and truly on your way. I can only wish you good luck with the stern post! All the best! Patrick

Hi everyone Progress has been a bit slow this week for a variety of reasons, but nevertheless, I've made the two wooden doors which lead from Majellan's main deck into the main saloon. They're tiny, so I don't know how easily you'll be able to see them in the photos. Also, in the lower deck, I've done the staircase which leads from that deck through to the main deck's saloon. Again, it's hard to see, but here goes anyway. All the best everyone! Cheers Patrick

Hi Nils Wow! Nils, that third photo taken from the bow looks mighty fine! Then, of course, there's the planking which can be laborious to do, but oh, so worthwhile once done. Nice! Cheers Patrick

...just keep doing it the way you want to, Mehmet. Only you have the vision of how you want it to turn out, so I'd say just go for it. Looks great to me, that's for sure. Cheers Patrick

Hi Bill I hope the hand is not too serious and that it mends well. I'm sure we'll all be waiting for your return to the shipyard. All the best! Cheers Patrick -

Hey Carl Many thanks!!! Nice to have you drop by, but, please promise me that you won't lurk in the shadows anymore. After all, I really value your comments (as I do for everyone else's, as well). Stay well and I hope your new IT business is going well. Cheers and all the best Patrick

Hi Frank That's a hell of a lot of clamps, which no doubt will do the trick. I'm really enjoying seeing what you're up to...and, to think that this is only the second ship you've built. Damn marvellous workmanship, I say! Onwards to the next post on the viewing port! Cheers Patrick

Nice job! WouldI be right in thinking that she's now going at a more realistic scale speed than before, or, is that just my imagination? Cheers Patrick

Thanks FNick! I'm kinda addicted to small models; not just because they take less room to display them in, but, there's also something mesmerising about holding a finely crafted ship in the palm of your hand Hi Frank - I have actually been thinking about the towels, but couldn't really see how to do them realistically. Your idea about the lead foil may just work. Thanks! Cheers Patrick

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.
