There are two brass sheets with a second layer of material detail on them ,and the instructions are not helpful as to how to use them. Has anyone encountered this kit ?  Thank-you for any information . Barry.

I used all metal parts which are supposed to be used as panels, doors, windows etc. on the deck cabins and hatches as templets to make them out of thin plywood, mahogany, dowels.

The larger pieces with the squares to be cut out are attached to the outside of the upper bulwark topped by the hand rail. (See my pics. here).

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.
