  1. The first deadeye with the lanyard are in place…. It took be about 1 hour to do it. But no pressure…..
  2. Thanks Grant and Popeye, @ Grant, When I cut every rope loose from the mast I see an other mistake that I make . At the book of rigging period ships you have to do 2 shrouds on one side and then 2 on the other side…..and so on. I did it not, just first all at one side and then to the other side. Learn something again @ Popeye, That was my mistake….the glue was already dry…... That's why a little damage!

  10. Thanks Adeline, I shall try to do that. But I try it once before and it turns out badly…... Thanks Mark, I can always say that Anja's Half Moon is angry on me……. Danny, A few weeks ago I had a few words for you that I don't put here….. Still a moderator in the house But now, THANKS! Sometimes you need the push to do something and you give it to me! It's still not perfect but I'm pleased with it. Mobbsie gave me the book Rigging period ship models and the first picture I see where the shrouds and lanyards……. Then there was the famous click…….
