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.

Bingo: schooner reylands, rebuild as a brig (hispaniola) for the movie treasure Island. 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
