By Kraken, I think you go it. Congratulations, Glen, the First Mate agrees with me too , and that doesn't happen often lol. The water is so very well done wow. Thank you so much for your log , nicely done even with all the outside distractions lol. So whatcha fixing to do next , I want to get a front row seat. Plus you don't have to send me the 20 us dollars you promised if I write you a glowing review lol. Thank you for the memories it was a lot of fun. Well done my friend -
They are not tied on , just clipped on till I have done the other side. Then I will tie everything together, my dyslexic way of rigging, bottom to top instead of top to bottom lol. Thanks for looking out for me.

The shrouds and deadeyes are done on the starboard side, now on to the portside. I will do the portside , then on to the Ratlines, my favorite part lol. Then the upper shrouds and rat lines. This will take awhile and my outside world is hampering my progress 😌. So it might be awhile before I get to post again lol, ok see you guys around. Thanks for everyone's help and time. I know my ships are not historical correct and I should do research on some stuff but my abilities to do that are lacking, but once I see how it is done or attempting to do then I understand. I have only been modeling for about two years, and have learnt to do so much. And there is a mountain of stuff to still learn. So a big thanks to everyone who help me along the way, and apologies for my typos and posting in the wrong place at times, I will get the hang of it lol Ok going to put into practice some of the stuff I learnt Sea you sooner or later lol

Yes that's it. Lines from the bottle. And maybe a few flightless birds tangled up in the lines. To show how our oceans are poluted. Just saying 😌 yep I Know what's your fixing to do next 😉

Well now I seen it, puddening, thanks for the info. You learn something new everyday. Your anchor looks good Scotty. I will follow along quietly, as I sea I am in over my head lol .

I have never served a ring, not to say it's not done , just I never heard of it. It looks good, by the time you tie on the big old anchor rope you won't see it,

Very nice job. I hear you on the jealous part, after looking at your log I had to go to my stash and hug my Pegasus and says soon. its torture lol
-
Yes the ring looks a little big. Seizing the line to the ring, not the ring itself .
-

Hey I must be on the autism spectrum because I use a micrometer to make ALL my deadeyes look the same. I should change my name to The Good Modeller. Lol But even with that, they are out a little lol. Sooner or later, you'll come across a log that will have a picture or explanation. I would check out @Katsumoto log of the Santa Maria. He showed me how to do ratlines , and I like doing them his way. Not many people like doing ratlines but I do lol.@Blue Ensign Pegasus log has so much information about lines, serving, seizing, attaching, etc... As for how to keep everything from unraveling, tension is the key, don't let go of the rope, lol. Easier said then done. 😉 I have enjoyed following along and seeing the detail you put into your ship, hope this helps.
