    Very interesting. I like particularly the system to prevent the jigsaw blade to bend sideways. It 's very smart. Great job.

    I don't know if Michael's machine is just like mine. If it is, the function is due to the eccentric position of the handle, that allows the rotation of the three hooks. I have some photos of my ropewalk machine, hosted on flickr. If it is possible, I can put the link. It seems possible: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fabiusb/8479131764/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/fabiusb/8478049097/in/photostream/

    Hallo friends, I search on Internet several type of ropewalk machine and finally, I discovered the pattern above. I built the machine and It works very well. It must be said that the left disc must rotate clokwise, while the right one should rotate counter-clockwise. One at a time respectively, before the left one, and after the right one. When the left one is working the right must be blocked and vice versa. I add that the construction is very simple and fast, and it is very cheap: only 1 coathangers and 2 plywood tablets each size 10x10 inch

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
