NAZGÛL got a reaction from Blue Ensign in Wasan 1628 by Nazgul - FINISHED - Billing Boats Vasa 1:75
Cheers Max, we work the same way then.
I have been working with the tops. It's funny how fast this step feels after doing slow work like the ratlines.
What I've done is making holes for the connections for the ropes/next level deadeyes holders.
I also tried to make the skanskläder for the mainmast:

Nigel,
That is some Beautiful rigging work you have done, nice and clean, no glue or anything can be seen. Excellent work. Thank you for sharing this. Keep the updates and pictures come. I am always watching even thought I don't say anything.

Wow, the grating turned out just perfect mate. How many hours went into it?
Nails, the ones on Vasas gratings are quite hard to even notice in real life.

A small update,besides cutting and shaping up some more deck beams(not taken any pics as they are well,beams ) I have milled two more grating 'bases' but have also built up the first one.This has to be cut to size and the top shaped.I have given it a thin coat of polyurethane to stiffen it up a little and hopefully stop me loosing the crisp edges through chipping.
Kind Regards
Nigel

Ah, the final ratlines of this stage is done, phew. I was bound to make mistakes as it was my first time, and the final mast became better than the first. But I'll look at the mistakes as lessons learned and move on.
I made a side by side with one of my ref pics, and besides the oversized deadeyes and that I didn't get the right number of ratlines/spacing, I'm happy with how the shaping of the ratlines came out.
Now it will feels good to make other things like finishing the tops and planning for the railings.

Hi Matti,
I agree: One project at one time is also my thing. I cannot focus on two or even more different models. I give full attention to one build - and this as long as it gets done.
Best wishes
Cheerio

Thanks Mark! I haven't fully decided but I may wait for Vasa II. But I'm lousy at just waiting when building things. It kills the passion and I can only do one project at one time. It's the way I keep focus.

Beautiful work. Are you going to wait for publication of Vasa II before proceeding further, or finish the rigging according to the plans?
