Welcome back!! Good to see you are working on the Fish again. She is coming along nicely!
I’m trying to get the mizzen topsail yard done so I can finally move on. It’s been a learning process so hopefully the other yards will progress faster.Rick

That’s a beautiful rigging job Rob!! The foot ropes look great!! I see what you mean about the length of the stirrups.
I’m going to try painting the foot ropes black also.

I really like the idea of placing the foot ropes first, that way they are the same length . Harder to do when threading the foot ropes through the stirrups.

I really like that technique! I think I’m going to try it as my results with the varnish have been somewhat inconsistent.

Ic, I used 28 ga copper wire for the stirrups and .012 black thread for the foot ropes. My intention is to apply Matt varnish to the foot ropes and shape them to the proper shape after I finish the rest of the work on the topsail yard.I’ll see if that works

Thanks Rob and George for your input. I am currently out of town helping my daughter plan her wedding (my input not required, just my approval). I will check everything when I get back.

Thanks for the input Rob,
really appreciated! I’ll go back and re-measure the stirrups, they’re supposed to be approximately 3 1/2 ft.
