Oh Steve, I overlooked your question. The case design is not yet clear. Currently I am collecting images of all case ideas, which I like. I should have a pretty good collection once I will need to answer this question 😊

Steve and Andrew, thank you for your kind remarks! And again, thanks for all the 'Likes'!
Gulfmedic1, I apologize for the late reply. I did not have access to the internet for several days and therefore did not see your question. The rivets are imprinted the usual way, i.e. the result are really rivets which are not 'outward' rivets but 'inward' rivets. Amazingly due to their small size it is difficult to distinguish - like an optical illusion. To achieve this size - also to stay somewhat within the correct scale - I used diabetes needles for the inprint.

A little progress . . . the bowsprit is now permanently mounted. The splashguard was made out of three 1/32” layers of boxwood, sequentially wetted, the first layer bent around a jig, the following layers around the existing preceding one (or two), and glued together. This layer technique resulted in a very stable design, which held the shape and also presented no problems when cutting the fairleads (img. 1 – 3). The gammoning can be seen in img. 4 – 5. And finally I added the bumkins shown in img. 6 - 8 with double stropped blocks (img. 6). Double stropping nicely allows for the 90° between the block and the lashing to the bumkin. It also shows again how universally the Syren serving machine can be applied. Img. 9 and 10 give an impression of the current state of the model.
