I built a manual cable bundling machine from recycled materials, which is also useful for making bundled straps for blocks in a very simple way.

Ingenious!!!!

I continue with the blocks:

Hi Jack! Congratulations on the wonderful project you are carrying out! I would like to know if in the future it will be possible to buy the drawings of this wonderful model, I would like to try to build it!

Hi Alessio! I have been following your model for a long time! I'm happy to find you here again!

A modeller friend rightly pointed out to me that there is an official drawing of the time for this ship. I looked everywhere except where I should have looked! Change of plan:
