Nice build. I learned about standing and running rigging building the Mantua Cutty Sark.
If anyone is interested disolving beeswax in Turpentine and then adding dye creates a slick tight very manageable line.
A small jar with a U shaped extension that has a wheel at the bottom and two holes for the line entrance and exit works beautifully to dye and empregnate your rigging.
Just for information.
Building my second Bluenose now.
Oh, when your sails are bent and raised give them a good misting with water and a little starch. Set up a fan and set the sails, looks great when they have a little belly and are tight.
