    After several attempts came bad, I managed to make a window more acceptable; I do not know if I can, but I want to try to fix the two hinges to be able to open; will be very difficult to fix the hinges to the threshold ......... In the photos the window is stuck

    I have finished the nailing of the transom and I banded the inner part of the time of transom

    Little progress; I completed the bandage transom: I have yet rifinirne contours which are abundant:

    Wonderful job!

    I started working on the transom, probably the less successful because of some asymmetry that I hope, completing the work, it is not too obvious. Meanwhile, I trimmed the excesses of strakes: I built the two stretchers of the transom: And the crowning that supports these stretchers: From this picture I get the impression that the courses tend to rise slightly to the left, although it seems not live; mah!

    Exscuse me, Mark.... From the first picture I see that the plank of ebony has not a curvature harmonious but has edges a bit 'too accentuated. This could affect the lines and the beauty of the model! You still have time to correct this error!

    Druxey you're right! Soon I'll have to paint the entire hull with matte varnish
  22. giampieroricci
    I cut the excess The final result; I'll probably still reduce thickness because it seems a bit 'too much, but I'll do it later, when I finish the walled inside starboard and adjusted the length of the lead lining.
  23. giampieroricci
    Before fixing the dolphins I believe I must cover the hawse pipes with lead foil. For this, I thought of using the commonest fishing sinkers, long enough and suitably machined on a lathe to obtain a kind of tube: Reached the diameter must have stuck in power, tapping it with a hammer. the tube in hawses

    I am happy that my work can serve to help you! Thank you!

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.
