Fokker Dr.I by Torbogdan - FINISHED - Model Airways
Nirvana replied to Torbogdan's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Hej Torbogdan or could it be Tor, I have been following your build log of the Fokker. Amazing job! That video clip with Mikael Carlsons flying was great as well. I found another link you may like. Click here to get there. -

Kenny, I know it's not mentioned, it should. I think the majority of us that build the longboat used the stiffeners.

Kenny, Those stiffeners are necessary for the fairing of the bulkheads, they can break away easily otherwise.

Bjørnar, Do you speak Swedish or Norwegian? Just wondering due to the location and closeness to Sweden. Looks like 5-8 km to Swedish boarder.

Mike, Tomorrow when you turn the tug around it will look fantastic. Nothing to worry about! Best part with the tug, you don't have to worry anything about weight as we had to with the T37. Varnish and paint, yep that is what I would recommend too.... Will you plank the deck?

Mike, I thought a reduction gear was to be good as well. What is the rpm on the motor (lowest)?

Rich, That surely is deep char. I thought that my boat I currently had deep one, but yours is even worse. I am sorry. Lots of sanding.

SS Mariefred by captainbob - 1:96
Nirvana replied to captainbob's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1901 - Present Day
Mike, the pictures you uploaded is of S/S Blidösund, which also is a Steamer. Edit: She belongs to Waxholms Bolaget, the smoke stack gave it away. And you are 100 % right, about Inland traffic with Mariefred and archipelago traffic. I think it's time to give CaptainBob his build log back. Sorry Bob -
Denis, I still like the build of yours. So unfortunate you have to live with the "like" clicks.

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.
