    Just out of interest - for any future builds you guys are doing etc - can you get scale metal chains for bikes? thought they would look supweb. OC.
  10. Old Collingwood
    Just a suggestion phil - where the beak head comes up and you have it flush with the heads decking, it would be good if you made an extion of the beak head as I understand it was designed so the bowsprit can rest on it. You would need to test dry fit the bowsprit first to get an idea of how much gap there is under neath where the beak head comes through. OC.

    Welcome rusty, I have to agree with phil its quite a good starting kit, Im sure most would agree best action with it is to think your way through it stage by stage, try dry fitting in stages to get a feel for things, but most of all ask as many questions as you want even if you think it sounds daft or not important (we have all been there) most of all take your time and enjoy. 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.
