  1. I hope so, but he doesn´t like that i put that " thing" on HIS tabel 😉
  2. Bowlines, To the mast top, or not to the mast top... After a constructive exchange of thoughts with one of our members via PM. It turned out that this method is not feasible. That's why I did a live test on this model. To the mast top, comes into contact with the top sail. To the fore castle, comes into contact with the fore sail. To the beak head, no problem. Result. With the fore mast ready i took some pictures in the garden. Someone thought he wasn't getting enough attention... A moment of panic,with me, not with the cat. And get in the way 😇 Now without a cat Thanks for following
  3. Kit collectors want an undamaged box with the contents in the original packaging. Once built, the value drops and is difficult to sell.
  4. If you taper these planks at the bow (definitely one of the two) Then your problem is somewhat solved
  5. Thanks Steven. Lots of ropes indeed. One must have a good memory to remember the purpose of each rope . Nothing for me 😉
  6. The fore topsail. The information found about this sail is scarce, confusing and sometimes illogical. So the most logical method that corresponds reasonably according to drawings is followed. All these extra ropes need extra attachment points. An attempt is made to depict a sail being hoisted. Sewn cotton has its limitations to reflect this... Work in progress To do, the bowlines. At the moment it is still uncertain where these will end up. Thanks for followiing
  7. Have a look at this site. The figures in color and also information about the gun carriages of the Vasa. http://www.wasadream.com/Index/indexenglish.html
