Elijah Posted August 28, 2017 #181 Posted August 28, 2017 Nice work on those ratlines! They look very good.

Just out of curiosity, in what situations do you use those files in the background? I used them to file small pieces of wood, tight areas of the ship, brass, soft metals... etc. For example, I used them to fine tune the gun ports.
