Morning Bertu

I finally have some more free time so I'm

continuing on the gaff and booms.

Have drilled and installed pins as per your drawing worked out great. So many errors in their dimensions. Drilled .5mm holes used .5mm wire than went on to put 8 mm pinsx .5mm dia in pre drilled holes only discover holes for 1 mm wire so did I blow it should other holes have been 1 mm wire as well

Finally need help with gaff/mast that appear to have block attached by thread

how do you do those (2 on formast gaff and 2 on main mast gaff)

Thanks in advance for your help it is really appreciated 

have a great day

Henry

Great build

I'm  am new to the world of wooden ship models and have stared building the  Bluenose II

you build 22534 by Latina

My issue is that many of the measurements in the booklet are Wrong.  For example the measurements given for the boom mast saddles. If drilled as per instructions only 2 pins would hold and one would intersect holes,

What measurements did you use and are wire pins through from one side to the other or just short pins pushed in on each side

Thanks

Good day Aceman 

love the work .I'm also working on this model but have encountered many omitted and or wrong measurements in the booklet.

I talked to an expert builder yesterday who said I should references the blueprints/ drawings but mine did not come with them. I was wondering if you still had yours and if so could I somehow get a copy of them. I'm in Canada and my hobby shop can't  order them

I wish mine looked as gd as yours

thanks
