Jim Lad got a reaction from Omega1234 in Syborn by popeye the sailor - FINISHED - 1:33 - trawler
Now that looks very workmanlike, Popeye. I feel like she could just sail away and start fishing!

Jim Lad got a reaction from John Allen in How were boats launched from the deck?
Here are two illustrations from 'Seamanship in the Age of Sail' by John Harland that explain the operation of launching a boat from the deck of a sailing ship.
This is an excellent reference book for those members who build models of wooden sailing ships and wish to understand more of their methods of operation and handling.

Jim Lad got a reaction from Canute in Removing the coating on magnetic copper wire
I've successfully used burning on copper wire - followed by a wiped with a rag to remove the residue - but you'd need to be careful of the heat on such fine wire.
