    My heart is breaking hearing this news. I have done so many businesses with Jim and Donna. My heart and thoughts are with them in this hard time.

    SketchUp does it too.

    It does, have a friend who did a half hull using F360 and cnc.

    Have you ever tried coffee brewed by a Swede?😄 The spoon is supposed to be able to stand on it's own in the cup.....🙂

    It's the small and integrated details that gives the pleasure at the end. Nicely done.

    So clean and so nice!

    Dremel units can change from collet to chuck within the same brand. Others are not compatible with Dremel. I have done so. Very convenient. Save your money with buying a Dremel, see it as a good investment. My corded and rechargeable has lasted for years.

    I have bought quite a few items from John Vojtech, the quality is better than what I expected. Have been using the saw for many years without noticing any wear of the blade. I prefer to give him my shopping spree instead of Amazon or Micro-Mark.

    SketchUp Pro, which I pay for annually. So currently I am running the latest. Able to do all types of cutting if needed.

    The free version is somewhat hidden but once you have it is easy to get started but difficult to master. I am using latest version of SU pro and latest F360.

    Erik that looks so good and smooth. Looking forward to the next step.

    I don't have sort of CNC experience, but after watching some videos it seems to be a fair entry level machine. There were some well-founded negativity, of areas that could had been better designed. But overall for 600 dollars it seems like a fair investment for hobby purpose.

    The weathered hull and deck surely makes it alive. Well done!

    Only question is the scale 1:72. Is it based on the big original model? The model, which took three months to construct, weighed over 25 long tons (25 t), measured 65 feet (20 m) in diameter and 20 feet (6.1 m) high, and used compressed air hover pads for up to 1.5 inches (38 mm) of hover-height movement around the set

    Go with a good carpenter square or Lego blocks, I have been using both. Save your money not buying the slip. With the lego blocks you can clamp them as well. Welcome to ModelShipWorld!

    I would suggest to go with a regular small air compressor and an airbrush. The compressor will let you to adjust the pressure more easily. And to me it looks like one has to have a compressor to recharge the canister. So why buy such a unit?

    No issues at all in Southern WA, using Xfinity. Has been very speed lately.

    Mass production!🙂

    Chuck, enjoy the remaining days at the beach. Hope you won some of Duo games...

    I think R/R shops has what your looking for. I remember when living in Spokane one the shops had such for scratch build buildings. Don't remember the manufacturer.
  23. Nirvana
    Chuck, you are teasing us to much..... I am on strict budget and now this.🙂
  24. Nirvana
    Oh my, that's a small piece to put in the lathe. I know I would had screwed it up. You on the other hand, make it look so easy. Beautifully done.

    A true warm thank you creating these issues. In the very last one I found an article I really needed. It's about the Bofors 40 mm cannon. Need that one for a project. Thanks again

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.
