RGL got a reaction from jablackwell in HMB Endeavour by RGL -FINISHED - Artesania Latina
The last of the ships boats. I scratch built the outside back in mid 2011 when I did the others, but as I am facing extensive cat damage again I thought I'd get i over and done with so I could do the rigging in one hit.
I have run off the AOTS's longboat including Windlass and Cable Cleats.

The last of the rigging. The ships longboat being brought in. Fiddly work. The flagstaff are attached and I am just awaiting the flags to arrive before she will be complete.

Your secret's safe with me (at a price)! Hope the flags turn out OK I have found them to be excellent! All the best, Geoff

RGL got a reaction from clearway in HMB Endeavour by RGL -FINISHED - Artesania Latina
Ok, sick to death or rope coils. I could probably go on and on and on with them, so I had to draw a line in the sand and stop. I have added the swivel guns (prepared ages ago - May 2012). I have added a photo of the swivel gun provided with the kit as well which is about 200 years out of date I think.
I have actually prepared the flagstaffs for the bow and the stern, but I need some advice on the flags. Each of the masts have a trunnel for flags as well. Do I use them?

The legacy of so much rigging is so many rope coils. i mean it, hundreds of the bloody things. I'm about half way there I think. It kinda looks like a dogs breakfast but I suppose it's meant to . the really difficulty is getting to the belaying points past all the standing and running rigging.

Works continues with installation of footropes and blocks on individual yards - it is tedious and monotonous work. But I am coming to an end, yet few pictures of lower yards.

RGL got a reaction from kiwiron in HMB Endeavour by RGL -FINISHED - Artesania Latina
Well, the bumpkin argument was entered into by the cat, who decided she didn't like them. Both chewed and snapped, and to add to the indignity tipped the entire ship off the piano, braking the foremast and stove in the port side main wales. Taffrails gone as well. Apparently it's my fault for putting the boat on top of the piano. 1 year of work gone. Bloody thing is curled up in front of me like it didn't happen. Photos soon preferably of a dead cat. Karma then bit me by tearing my calf heroically getting out of a van at work. 2 out if three to go.

Lower mast stays completed. All of the stays were made on the Model Shipways ropewalk, and I wormed each of them with smaller thread. I made individual mice for each on my little jig. Futtock staves and catharpins added. I think it is time for the pain of ratlines.

I'm a little bit erratic with my build. I did the gun tackles on one of the guns quite a while ago then moved on to something else. Today I thought I should finish them all off and get that job out of the way, fiddly work though because the blocks are so small. Well I got one more gun done. Gee the camera shows up flaws that you just cant see with the naked eye, like dust and white stains from the CA glue
