Jim Lad got a reaction from FriedClams in Herzogin Cecilie 1902 by Jim Lad - Four Masted Barque
A little more progress on the 'Duchess'.
All six yards are now crossed on the mainmast, so that leaves only six more square sails to rig. When I look at the model now, I sometimes think that she's getting towards completion; then I remember ratlines, braces, staysail sheets and deck details to complete and go back to wondering whether she'll ever get there! 😉

Hello, and thank you for your comments and likes
today I started with an experiment to create the shroud pins. With some branches from my boxtree. Let's see what's going to be.
The arrow shows one of the Gokstad ship in the scale, it is 13mm long!
