    Thanks again for the warm welcome from me and Anja......
    Anja is not around for a while here, because of other things that keeps her busy .
    But she send her regards to all of you !
     
    @ Jan,
     
    All the finished models are not in this house....
    I was afraid for damage when I move them,  so they are at a school close at the old house.
    All the young kids can watch it and I'm happy with that solution.
     
    @ Wim,
     
    Thanks.
    I will give that a try !

    Hi Sjors,
     
    A bit of thinned timber glue makes your ropes stiffer and more easy to handle.
    It worked for me.
    Good luck.

    Hi All,
     
    Again, thanks for all the comments and likes everyone..
     
    It has been slow going as I learn, but I've made a little  progress on the rigging.  All the double blocks for the shrouds have been seized to the eyebolts ready for attaching to the chainplates. Hard to tell from the pictures, but the top of the mainmast shrouds were then served where they wrap over one of the metal crossbars at the top of the mast.  Finally, before tightening the shrouds, pairs of single blocks were attached to the mast using the other crossbar. These pairs of blocks will be used later when the sails are added. 
     
    Now on to complete the fore and mizzen mast shrouds...hopefully this will go a bit faster!
     
    Cheers,
     
    Nigel.
