Anton, I'm curious. The shunt lines from deck to the top of the mast? If someone fell, is there a way that would stop them? I ask because back in the DDM days, one of the admins did the Lady Washington and accidentally clipped onto a stay instead of using the shorter lines for that purpose. He happened to fall and basically went from the top of the mainmast to the deck. He survived but had some serious injuries. Luckily some others where on the ratlines and managed to grab him as he went by which slowed his fall.

PVA probably won't stick to CA.. unless you sand down to wood where it hasn't soaked. Which probably defeats the stiffening. Test it on some scrap. Also make a 50/50 mix of PVA and water and brush it onto scrap and test that. It should soak in a harden things up a bit.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
