  1. Hello Mimmo, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. John
  2. Hello, and a warm welcome to the forum from across the pacific! John
  3. Great to hear that you've had some success with the magical art! John
  4. A fun job to make that stern frame, Keith. Interesting that she has a left-handed propeller. John
  5. Paul, what ship are you building? Are you sure these jackstays were rigged? If they were rigged, they would be shackled to eyes at the upper end and with bottle screws (rigging screws) shacked to eyes at the deck. John
  6. Allen, Paul is referring to Underhill's "Masting & Rigging - the clipper ship and ocean carrier". Paul - if you read Underhill's notes at the top of page 87, you'll see that he's referring to alate innovation on some of the large four masted barques from the end of the 19th century. John
  7. Hello Monique, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. John
