Another Rope Walk
michael mott replied to michael mott's topic in Rope Making/Ropewalks's Rope Materials and parts resources
GTM, thanks for the link very interesting. Michael -
Very interesting Helmut I will have to study your design carefully so that i understand how it works. Michael
-
Toni, I am always shocked when I see how small some of the incredibly detailed ship models are. Yours is no exception I thought it was at least twice as big as it is. Beautiful workmanship. Michael
-
What a lovely hull shape, I will be following along. Michael
-
Nice work Adam I like these smaller boats that are to a larger scale. Looks like you are zipping along. Michael

Ok here are a few pics showing the relative scale of the pilot cutter. It was tough going through the shrinking machine but I managed to stay calm. Normally I am 6 foot 2 inches here I am at 9 1/4 inches tall. Michael

Great to see your log back Mark. Tour clean workmanship is inspirational. Michael
-
Hi Ron, I'm working on it I am just waiting for a few batteries to charge up. Michael

Carl, I think I could actually build a full sised boat faster. Daniel , thanks for your kindness. Bob Thanks I'm glad I did too. John, yes when one falls off the deck its best to climb back right away

Another Rope Walk
michael mott replied to michael mott's topic in Rope Making/Ropewalks's Rope Materials and parts resources
Håkan!, I edited the drawing because I missed a part. The way it works is that the circular disk rotates like a cam it is off set so as it rotates it swivels the three hooks. Michael -
Hi John, Yes the loss was painfull, I will follow along as you continue the build. Good to see you back up and running. Michael
-
Håkan, Thanks I am thinking I could probably build the real thing in the same amount of time. Michael
-
Mark Thanks. Remco, Thanks I am pretty pleased with it myself. I did a little more work on the cockpit walls today. The groove is visible for the gasket around the walls. Chiselling out the corner blocks to create the rounded corners. The shaping is in the first stage so that I can fit the floor plate. Michael

Based a simple rope walk I spotted on another forum, I modified the turns by using a disk instad of a bar with bent coat hangers this will work with bent coathangers as well. this is basically just a schematic. I will be building myself one quite soon and will add to this thread with more detailed information and descriptions. the idea is to not have to deal with meshing gears. Michael
