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.

In the US carbon steel suitable for toolmaking is sold as "drill rod" and in the UK it is known as "silver steel".  It is worth noting that carbon steel tools will probably be much cheaper than the equivalent HSS.

Keep in mind Carbide bits are very brittle and will not take any side-load without breaking.  I use the carbide bits from Drill Bit City, but only in the drill press.  For the pin vise, only hss bits.  They are more forgiving if your hand is not rock steady.  I tried the carbide bits in my Dremel right angle accessory and just the kick at the start was enough side load to snap them.

HSS stands for High Speed Steel and is kind of a standard for normal metal working.  You can go up a step to cobalt if the work is harder.

With micro drill bits that would be used with a pin vise, which are better bits hss or carbon stellfor our purposes? This is for use with wood.

It is unlikely that in modelling - even with our small power tools - we would manage that unless we really abused our tools.  If you are burning the timber with a drill bit something is wrong and you may well be in a situation where carbon steel tools would be damaged.

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.

Or you can go another step up with titanium bits,although they are generally not available in micro sizes that I know of.

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.

It really doesn't matter which you use.  The major difference between HSS and carbon steel as far as we are concerned is that carbon steel can, if heated sufficiently, lose its sharp edge and can revert to its original "soft" state.  However it would have to be taken to "blue" at around 300°C for this to happen.  HSS can be run red hot and will still hold its edge.
