Just a small update on my dio - It was (was) sold pending being collected and pay, but after a couple of weeks of back and forward phone calls, the person txtd me and bowed out. Amazingly difficult to sell by the look of it but guess thats for several factors - collection needed as it can not be posted, its part built and many folks like to build their own from scratch - always the same when you dont want to sit on a sale waiting months or even years.

Amazing work Alan, this scale really tests our abilities - on the limit of almost being impossible. OC.

Great work Alan - glad you was able to fix the tweezer drop issue, I would have been pulling my hair out. OC.

A bit more info about what I am selling - PRICES NOW SLASHED The Waterloo dio is a WIP with all the extras to complete it - figures, scenery, trees, fake grass sheet and some styrene pieces, I am asking for £150 including the Perspex display case that I had made for it. The Black Pearl is 1/72 scale and is based around the plastic kit, I have added lots of additions to it including wood decks, dowels inside the masts to strengthen them, wooden spars, ropes for the standing rigging and shrouds and rat lines - there is also a pirate crew in some interesting positions . Its fitted to a wood base and makes an excellent display piece and I am looking for £100. The Wall unit is all glass with two opening glass doors and Five positionable glass shelves and is six feet tall x 1.5 feet wide and just over a foot deep and I am looking for just £25 for it. The kits - M1A2, Sea Harrier, Sea Fire and Hawk and even the 1/700 scale HMS Hood (dio idea to be finished) are all for sale but no idea what prices are ok for them. They would need to be collected from the UK as due to size - delicate nature posting would not be possible, cash also preferable. Message me if you are interested Thank you. OC.

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.
