NenadM got a reaction from ScottRC in Cutty Sark by NenadM
Sometimes you, just, don't think (and we know that thinking is too difficult and the devil's work!)
The mast nests on my model have a lower metal structure over which planking is laid.
Pictures 1 and 2 show what this is all about.
Come on...
I struggled to do the lower structure, after 2 hours of drilling and milling finally satisfied, all that was left was to adjust the hole for the mast, when ... hell!
It can not get in!
The genius forgot that because of the earlier story about the hooks, he made the masts thicker by about 1mm, which required me to make the nest a little bigger.
So ... let's start from the beginning.

NenadM got a reaction from berhard in Cutty Sark by NenadM
Material: Cu foil 0.3mm and Zn wire 0.5mm
All three of them finished.

Rings with rings and pins at the bottom of fore mast. Little pins are unusuable on this scale, and it overlays my skill, so I made two rings with rings, a bit larger and simplydied. It would not be visible when ropes come over one day

One step forward.
Connection by barbeque sticks. Strong and elastic.
Not glued jet, first to finish masts.

Little progress. First I closed and filled wrong holes I drill for masts, and then cover them properly

Work drawing in a way to prepare for nests.
Material for base - thinned and cleared galvanized sheet for gutters.
Strong enough to accept rope lines, also easy for drilling and digging that spaces, also for soldering.
Over will come narrow laminate strips, planking on same way as I did on decks
Little dead-eyes of course
