Hi Shaun It gives some other options to get the shrouds to a equal lenght. Here you can see a other one.

Hello, Thank you so much for your nice comments and also for the likes. I'm very pleased about this great interest. Here's a little update. Some strakes below the wale and the garboard strake are fitted. The progress is very slowly because It's partial a bit tricky. Also I needed time to find a way to add the planks without leaving any trace at the frames. Therefor the build from Ed of the Extreme Clipper is a great help. In the TFFM-book this strakes are reffered to as thickstuff under the wales. There is a little step from the second to the third strake to see on the following photo. That's why the thickness of the strakes decreases. I will sanding down them when the fourth strake is installed. That's the current progress.

Hello, Here's a little update and I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a Merry Christmas. I started to fit the ribbands and coloured the Main-Wale black. The ribband-nails are done in the same manner as described in the book from David Antscherl of the Swan-Class. Only the insertion tool was made of a screw and two screw-nuts. For securing the nails I used white clue and think that it works. The Main-Wale is coloured with black stain. Mark gave me this advice in my build of the Leopard and it works very well.
