Jotika Victory Mast Question

On plan sheet 6, topgallant mast, front elevation, there appear to be 2 holes drilled through the mast: one immediately above the 4 mm square section and one below the upper, tapered octagon. Are through holes also required on the fore and mizzen topgallants, or, for that matter, any other

mast section? Since I am constructing the masts from square stock, it would be eas1er to drill anyrequired through holes on a flat surface prior to shaping.

Some more detail on the sheave assembly construction would also be appreciated.

Thank you for your help.

Excellent work Jason. Great detail work.

I suggest you GOOGLE "Instrument Ties" There are a number of video hits showing how to tie knots in tight places using surgical instruments and a small amount of thread. Really all you need is a couple of readily available hemostats. A little practice and you will tie knots like a surgeon.

Good luck

Beautiful work! Before you rig, do not forget to rotate that right deadeye (seen in the deadeye close-up) so the triangle points down. Really instructive build with great photos.

Thank you Mike. I will use those dimensions for my case as well. Your FLY looks awesome!
