  1. Hi, I took a break from the boring tying ratlines and I made a trial for a buoy... Imitation of the rigging came from the last picture.
  2. Hi Michael, I had seen how to make a barrel in a Log. But I don't remember where it is. 10 pieces of wood are cut as a longitudinal triangle profile. They are assembled radially. Then they are shaped on a lathe as a barrel. The lower and upper sections of each piece of the ten are narrow and the middle abdomen is wider. Then a circular cap is fixed.
  3. @ Michael Thank you Michael, for your nice support words as usual... @ Hamilton Hi Hamilton, I'm glad to see you again my friend. You're so kind as always. Thank you for your comment and likes. As time goes by, I slow down. I wish I can finish it. When I look back I am amazed how I've done so much things. I think I couldn't do it if it were now...
  4. Hi, Dave leaded me to his topic Masthead Trucks where I found the solution and I applied it to all masts having flag. And I finished and fixed the stern flag mast... The choosen is 3 a - b
  5. Hi Dave, First of all, I'm sorry to ask again a question that has already been asked and solved... I have missed it... Being so far from terminology I don't understand many things without illustrated narrative even if I translate the typed text. Now, it is clear after the pictures in your topic. Thank you for your interest and help...
  6. I found another picture on the web. Another mechanism. Let me know your opinion on it... Any historical accuracy?
  7. Hi Dave, If I understand correctly: The mechanism on the drawing is correct but the location of the sheave is not. The halliard comes from aft to fore... (the sheave is just on the center of the mast cap, the halliard jumps from aft to fore over the cap.)
  8. Thank you Michael for the reply, I just remember, I had said that your Wasa Log was a reference book... I will follow your example. Attaching the flags to the ropes: IMO details can be omitted when the pieces of the model become too small. Otherwise it can be seen too crowded...
  9. Thank you Dave, for your immediate reply... It's really big family here, NRGMSW... Then I have to make miniscule hanging blocks...
  10. A help request... Has the drawing a historical accuracy for the year of 1674 for the flags of the topgallant masts?
  11. Thank you Michael for kind words, and for the Likes... A help request... Has the drawing a historical accuracy for the year of 1674 for the flags of the topgallant masts?
  12. Hi, There is my snail speed... New few updates... All rigging except for sails and yards and topmast ratlines were finished... This is even a stage... ☹️ A work that shows the ship beautiful but is in fact too boring: Ratlines again and now for topmasts...
  13. Thank you JP for your kind words. It will be quite pleasant to follow your Berlin... And I am still waiting for you to restart your authentic La Renommée...
  14. If the rope coming from the sail passes through under the handrail first, #1 and #2 are like that...
  15. When I put the work into practice, I realized that #1 and #2 were wrong drawings... The tip of the rope must be at the opposed side(where the rope came from). The rope ends at the other side, beside of the rope coming from the sail... 😞
  16. Michael, My work on Berlin continues slowly, block by block, knot by knot... The progress is unclear at rigging process. So I can't share anything... But my enthusiasm continues...
  17. Michael, again... as though it's a natural scene from a real ship... The inheritance of the Wasa continues... 👍
  18. Hi Jason, Although the reality can be different from the artistic view, the scenery of the heavier rope is more satisfying. ( In fact, I have to be the last person who can dare to state an idea 😕 )
  19. Thank you for all your help and relevance..
  20. Single and doubling... Please let me know your suggestion if the drawings are correct... (Maybe for #3 and #4 to add around one winding before the clove hitch.)
  21. If I understood correctly, If there is not doubled rope...
