Well, it's not a ship model kit, so admin and moderator feel free to move this build log. I don't know how many of you have heard of Metal Earth, this is a company located in Seattle, WA that came up with the idea to make PE kits. This light house build will only contain pictures no explanations. Only two tools were used, a fine plier and a cutter. No glue, and no soldering. Build time about an 1 hour.

Skeeta, sorry for editing your first posting , but this a huge and warm It looks like you are off to an extremely good start. Looking forward to your build log.

Nirvana replied to LMDAVE's topic in Wood ship model kits
I was looking at those pictures and didn't want to post them, it might be the Miss Thriftway too. Maybe the hatch was something your father created himself as for radio compartment. Hope the attic will turn up the missing box or plans. The plot thickens...😁 -

I am sorry to say it's not Miss Thiftway from Dumas. The lines are wrong. Further investigation needed! -

Nirvana replied to LMDAVE's topic in Wood ship model kits
Based on the labels in the model, this is from a kit. Maybe it's Miss Thriftway from Dumas, I don't know. Some work but can be fixed, would be nice to have as a memory of your father. -
Olya, I am impressed! Not only you are taking amazing pictures but also building small and detailed model ships. I am glad I found your website.

Converting a Backyard Shed into a Model Workshop
Nirvana replied to Hank's topic in Modeling tools and Workshop Equipment
Hank: I am to install Mistubishi Inverter unit, sure it's more money but that way the moisture build up will end up on the outside and not in a tank. -

Tom, that's an outstanding kit, so beautiful done with all the detailing. Wish the cameras could be as small as a micro led light, because it's a shame to have those details hidden. Having a tablett right next to the model and being able to click through the various compartments. One question: What software do you use for the process of creating her? Thanks again! -
Very nice job Justin. I used my dremel for the belaying pins as well, very tedious and difficult job. But yours looks so much better than mine.

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.
