planked cabins

after a long break have added two yard arms to the rear mast.

Hi Brian, yes im varnishing the model, have to do some sanding, i used super glue and some of it has ended up on some of the surfaces on the ship, so sanding it of could be difficult, might have to investigate the use of a solvent though thats a bit risky since the surplus glue that has dried is near the glued components. might just have to put up with it if it doesnt sand of. have to yet do some double planking on the cabins on the deck and some rigging also with the placement of the other masts or yardarms.

i have the split brass rings which i can add as hoops by bending them to fit onto the masts. Thanks Ray

hi Brian, I noticed the rings in the instruction plans, there were some wooden ones in the kit, they didnt seem to fit at the base of the mast and i didnt want to force them onto the mast no doubt they would be broken in the process if i tried no doubt. i have some split brass rings not sure if i should use these as a substitute for the wooden rings, there were only 2 wooden wooden rings supplied and they didnt fit.
