    Lol are you stalking me? there is a lot of information out there, i keep finding things of interest, but the Trawling Through Time say they will have the plans (if any up soon) i manly want to know where the bulkheads are, after that a lot of information will fall into place https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cook,_Welton_%26_Gemmell

    lovely nice clean work
  3. Kevin
    yes they are on the way, but i am still looking for wheel house details
  4. Kevin
    Thank you for the comments this is how i am tonight Another question would the same wood type be used on the margins, i am doing this in lime strips 1mm x 5mm and purchased 1mm lime plank but it is very very brittle and i think unusable was wondering if birch would look silly, also this will not be a pristene build but a well used working static cutaway trawler also would the margins ever be painted?

    good evening Jason Dobbie ECS will be 4 this August and is my bestest ever friend love your photo of the dogs
  6. Kevin
    I feel better about this
  7. Kevin
    Appologies my friend i regretted saying that i would continue as i was going, im here for advice so 3rd attempt, no margins yet
  8. Kevin
    Well worth the wait she looks great

    Having served on british diesel subs, this sends shivers down my spine the old, , sorry i missed the start of the build, lovely work
  10. Kevin
    lol i still dont know whats is best for me, the margins first or the planking, but as i bought 6mm wood strip, i went with the planking first and will make the margins fit
  11. Kevin
    Agreed, but if the concept is correct then i will proceed with what i have started, to make the margins wider i think will interfere with everything that has to go on this area however when i do the Amerigo Vespucci i will do this system again

    Thank you I moved on to the boat deck to see if i could make any progress on this nibbling But i still think i am getting it wrong im not sure if i should be rebating into the margin as well, but for tonight i have had an attempt on scrap wood to fit the margin to the planking
  14. Kevin
    Thank you Jim very much appreciated, when/what angle defines that a nibbling is required
  15. Kevin
    She looks fantastic

    Good evening everyone, As you can see by the photo this is the deck plan for my 1/32 trawler, there are a lot of pointy bits, which i guess woulld not happen, i am laying planks over this and woundered if any one had any idea how it should look, even though a lot of it will never be seen is the decking plan wrong?
  17. Kevin
    outstanding
  18. Kevin
    Looks fantastic
  19. Kevin
    I can see a few being put into this build, im still very early into the build and no doubt a few areas will require a little help from mother nature
  20. Kevin
    Good evening everyone i put quite a bit of thought into the bridge roof last night and eventually fell asleep with no solution, then whilst walking the dog came up with this, now i have a way ahead (small steps) other than that today has been spent on the hull with the bilge keels, will cover that this week so now i have a removable roof panel which will allow access after the interior is fitted out
  21. Kevin
    Congratulations Chris
  22. Kevin
    i see it decided to put the photo in reverse, but i am happy with the results so far, like the victory i have no intentions of her being a show room condition build, LOL i cannot work like that, she will also need to be well weathered,
  23. Kevin
    Good evening everyone the wheel house assembly continues, im determined this time to complete projects and report progress if anyone is interested, and not post other bits that i have started until relevant,
  24. Kevin
    Thank you for the comments of course i will post the dock progress but will have to wait until i get a holiday, hope to get a week of in July or August when i also need to put in 60' of fencing as well as ours got storm damaged, i have however got lots going on with the trawler build
  25. Kevin

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.
