I have also ordered Soren blocks for my ship, not that I need them at the moment. The reason they have two holes per sheave is to simulate the sheave. I lack a picture, but if you look up ships block or something you may be able to see his on a real sail ship. Blocks are just another word for pulley on a ship, and they were used as pulleys. You only use the farther one because the wood in the center is the spinning wheel. If you used the close one, the rope would be trying to pass over hard wood at the bottom of the block. That would be much more difficult to pull than over the wheel in the center !

Lots of more homework this week. It is near the end of the year, so it is understandable. I wish it wasn't a higher priority than modeling ! Thanks for all the compliments, I enjoy them!

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.
