    Bob, "I hate sanding", guess I am not alone in this matter. ​ But your canon display is coming together nicely, I like it!

    Cathead, You have done a fantastic job! Even though we have all access to others build logs and the great instructions from Mr. Passaro himself, many times we have to go by trial and error. And that makes every one of us a better model builder. My longboat is at a standstill, even though a workshop is not required for the remaining building. It is very much down to the rigging.

    Chuck, I just wondered if a laser cutting is so bad, would it be possible for us to get help through you? In such scenario as above I would be really happy to pay you for the cost to get it done properly. Just a question....

    Just look at the identification letter "A"

    John, That is bad laser cutting. ME should sent you a new kit.

    Yepp, cheap tool it may be. My 25 dollar version is very inaccurate. Got a more expensive last year but doesn't do fractions. Hmm, Amazon.... Time to search.

    Maury and all, I am also looking into a "new printer" - as my cat by the name Tigger used the tray extension of my HP OfficeJet 6700 to launch himself to the windowsill. That resulted with a printer doing a 390 crashing down on the floor. Which resulted with - no more printing. When I looked into the "9800" I found it discontinued. Considering since that color laser printer are available at low prices and with the usage of ink cost I am considering laser. Sorry Maury, I prefer talking ships and your Anchor Hoy looks so nice, just like your Emma C. Berry.

    J, When it comes to wood upgrade. I think most of us went with the boxwood, this including me. Very nice wood to work with.

    To make this joke worse, over here in the states there is a tv show that goes by the name, wait....wait for it Dog -The Bounty Hunter

    Chuck,very nice pumps. Like the reddish color.

    Bob, What is his name? Looking at those eyes, he says I didn't do it.... I am innocent.. lol

    Chuck, I need the blueprints for the timemachine...... you don't have enough with time to deal with that so let me take over and sell it for you. ​
  13. Nirvana
    One question though: How on earth did you extend the length of the day...... seems like you have 28 hours cycles in comparison to us regulars....
  14. Nirvana
    Chuck, aahhh, this is another masterpiece of yours. I like it very much. My workshop is down due to a previous move. Time to get moving again and finalise the longboat.
  15. Nirvana
    When I saw those pictures, I thought Oh no! Then again, I know you Bob..... you will put the Bounty aside for a long time. And maybe some day repair the damages, unless they are far beyond saving. I surely like the build log. Hope you and your dog are okay. Bob, I agree with you 100% regarding the quality of wood in AL's kit.

    It's called jewlers miter cutting vise. That's why you have a hard time to find it. I had a hard time too so I played around with the words. And found it. Can be found on Amazon.

    And now back to the Bounty! ​

    And then in NHL playoffs, wondering if they will wear their dinner jackets.

    Steve, I think we can all fit but the next after you is gonna have a problem, because we will shovel that person around so we can see what is happening with Bobs build. And don't sit on any "Danes", they are in that corner of the couch. Coffee?
  20. Nirvana
    Now what I have to share? lol Well, that's okay. Cookies and coffee?
  21. Nirvana
    Dan, Please look at this link, I think it could be very helpful for you, besides there are plans available to.
  22. Nirvana
    Sam, I think he went into the dark cabin and now not able to find the windows.....
  23. Nirvana
    Wow, What a fast built! lol That is looking very nice.
  24. Nirvana
    Bob, My friend Floyd, who is currently taking a break from MSW and modelling built that kit. As I never saw the build itself I am trying to find a chair. Oh no, no chair but I found a couch, now all I need is coffee and a danish and wait for the next part of your build. Looking good!

    I also second Bill, I have the sander and chopper II, great investments. This has been discussed before.

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.
