    I can only agree with the above comments. It is beyond me how you can do such marvelous work at such small scale! I am really looking forward to see this model move to completion! Thomas

    Thank you, B.E. and Glenn for your kind words, and again thanks for all the likes! Glenn, the loop was closed with a 'simulated splice', i.e. I glued both ends together with CA and served the connection with the two ends of the serving thread, which I had left there for this purpose when serving the rope.

    Fantastic job, Johann! I will use this as reference (again) once I am at that point with my Syren 🙂 Thomas

    Great looking wheel, Mike! Especially the spokes are the tricky part, and you did an excellent job! Thomas

    Making these columns looks like a pretty tedious job. But as usual, wonderful execution on your part! Thomas

    Thank you Chuck and Stuntflyer for your kind comments! And thanks for all the likes! I am looking forward to finally being able to permanently mount the bowsprit. I have been waiting for this moment for quite a while 🙂 Thomas

    I finally had the time to continue with the fore stay, bob stay, and bowsprit shroud collars. To make life easier I added some extensions to my Syren serving machine (Img_1). I also used the open and closed heart kits from Syren. They show more details than the parts provided in the initial ship model kit (Img_3), and being assembled of three different wood layers the danger of accidentally breaking them is minimal. The ropes for the collars were all served with a 100 wt silk thread. For the round seizings I used a 100wt silk thread of a slightly different color. Images 2 – 7 show the process and the final result. Img_8 presents the bowsprit assembly in its current state. Thomas Img_1 Img_2 Img_3 Img_4 Img_5 Img_6 Img_7 Img_8

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.
