The idea of posting rigging boom was born suddenly for me. Feature of "bottle" modeling is that it should be possible disassembly and rigging before placing the model in a bottle and reassemble all we have made before inside the bottle. In this project, I am going to put into bottle the hull of the model piece by piece, and then later install the mast and pull the rigging.

Then I continued to work with the front sails. Some time ago I cut a lot of rings of thin wire. I used some of them to simulate the eyelets, and the rest I decided to use for the simulation of small rings, which sails are attached to the front of the forestay.

Now some updates in this project. Firstly, I finally fixed the mainsail and cut off any excess threads.

Many thanks Mike. Patrick, Mark, Harry and and all who are interested in this project! I really appreciate your comments and feedback! Now I will try to answer you and tell you about new updates. No, Mike, these blocks I make using glue. I tie the threads in knot and add a small drop of glue to the knot. Please, look at this photo: In this project, I do not use the loops, hinges or other similar tricks. I am going to put the mast into the bottle separately from the hull. There is a hole in the deck for the mast - Patrick, I'm trying to find a simple ways to solve many problems. Sometimes I do it , but sometimes not Oh, Mark, these blocks are very easy to do, but as a result they look pretty good, especially since very few people will be able to see them inside the bottle Oh, thank you my old frend Harry! I would like to clarify that this model can not be called as model of the Endeavour. The fact that in the beginning of this building I have changed ratio of the her hull. As I said, I made this hull at the end of 2014, but then I did not like this resultat. So I did not continue the construction in that time. Now I decided to finish it, to test the new material for the manufacture of the sea and some of my ideas. Yes, I use еруыу drawings of the yacht Endeavour to make of deckhouses, some elements and sail, but I can not call it as the yacht Endeavour Harry, can I look at the photos of your model of Endeavour?

Hi Daniel! I used the plans of the yacht ENDEAVOUR for making the sails Best Regards! Igor.

Once with eyelets were finished, I once again painted the sails with a mixture of water diluted white glue and white acrylic.

Many thanks Carl! But I also continue to learn. This model has become my testing ground for the testing new ideas and technologies During the last weekend I was continuing to work with sails. At first I have glued grommets using CA. But it was not the good idea. Then I tried to use Titebond II. Then I have drilled holes.
