Throat-seizing for the shrouds on dead-eyes
amateur replied to dancat's topic in Masting, rigging and sails
You can do it like this, but.... after attaching the lanyards, it is hardly visible that you did the 'vertical' seizing. Also: as the shrouds are far more playable that the Original stuff, puttin gthe whole thing at a ceratin amount of tension, tends to remove the little gap between the parts of the shroud. But okay, mine is scale 1:100, so at larger scale it will probably visible. But t's fun to do The vertical throat seizing is not done differently from the 'normal' ones: make a small loop in the shroud, make the seizing, then insert the deadeye and fiddle around until it is at the correct height, secure the seizing, and make a second (and third) one above the throat seizing.

I know the story (at least the MSW1-version of it) Had a discussion with him on the place where to find drawings of both Java and O19 in the Dutch archives. Jan

Searching for ship+movie ends up in lots of pics of starship Enterprise, titanic or horation hornblower. All three are not correct, I presume.... Jan PS or pirates of the carribean, but it's certainly not the plack pearl

And don't stop too often, or you'll discover that every time you start is just like the first time.... Half an hour every three weeks isn't the right way to go (speaking from personal experience) Jan

You should rename your file before uploadingh, otherwise it's too simple Jan

This game is rapidly changing into 'find were the name is'-game And as you have only one 'non-laker' you decide to concede. We understand ..... Jan

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.
