For those of you who like to make your own machines,there is a very cool 3 axis milling machine made from a rotary tool, wood, and store bought fittings. Its in the July/August issue of SHOP NOTES magazine. Wish I could post a pic but there are rules of course.SHOP NOTES is a very informative magazine on woodworking and is usually more technical than say HANDYMAN or some of the others. All dimensions and materials are given for this tool and also the sources for parts are included check it out. BILL in Idaho

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.
