    Hi Paul and a warm welcome to Model Ship World, it is a friendly place where you can get answers to your build questions. Greetings from a place half way between Seattle and Portland.

    Mary, my thoughts to you and for speedy recovery.

    Fascinating story and a warm welcome to MSW.

    After watching a video clip about full size plank bending where they used distilled vinegar, I thought to give this a shot. I am so happy I found that trick as it worked out very well for me. Vinegar breaks down the molecules and softens the wood, applying heat to get the curves and bending and you have the shape. The distilled vinegar doesn't change the color of the wood. Application time about 10 minutes

    Hej Mike, 

    Var exakt bor du i Stockholm? Bodde själv i Österskär och senare i Gröndal.
    Glad sommar till dig!

    The little sister of HMS Wasa, HMS Falken was recently confirmed found. Her state is not in any shape of recovery. More diving will commence

    Interesting tool, now that I have a mill this is some I would like to try to recreate. Oh, by the way, did someone said, "we are suckers for tools"?🙂

    The 2D needs to reworked for 3D and STL files.

    Jackson, I just went through your build log of HMS Greyhound as it looks really good. Best luck to finish your build.

    HazeGray, knowing your capacity of creating the plans for 3D printing this model with its history looks fascinating. Waiting for more from you and maybe a future printed ship.

    I have used the same urethane on one of my rc yachts with good results. That is a beauty, nice job!

    Justaguyinvegas, I like your log, however one thing I would had done before any decking commenced, I would have epoxied the inside of the hull. This to eliminate some possibility for the water to come through. However, the finish does look amazing.

    Roy, I have two models of San Felipe, both inherited and started, the smaller came with two SF-boxes with items hopefully to make one complete ship. Please get back to your build as it looks really good.

    Could be a way to make it slightly harder for the "pirates" in the model market. Maybe Chuck has the answer for us.

    That is an amazing model of the SS Virginia, went onboard her last fall at Olympia Tug Boat festival. Beautiful steam engine. We had a RC sailing yacht stuck to the starboard side hull while she was in dock.
  24. Nirvana
    Very nice Eric

    Any possibility of flickering led lights inside?

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.
