Sjors Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share #393 Posted April 18, 2013 Again thanks, thanks and thank you Very nice work Sjors, she looks beautiful now. Will enjoy the riging when you start it. Børge Hi Børge, You enjoy the rigging when I started? I thought you give me a hand…... Every thing alright with you? You have outdone yourself once again, my friend! Beautiful and well worth waiting for. Soldier on! One question --- does she have a lot of yards? The reason I ask is that I thought ratlines were tedious. Well, I've come to find out that after those are done, rigging the yards is worse. My main lower yard has 10 eyebolts and 30 blocks (not to mention lashings and footropes). Just something for you to look forward to once the cat finishes hanging the rats I'm gonna take a look to see how many yards I have….I have 7 of those….. We will see where it ends! I have not count how many eyebolts and blocks are on it. I let you know….. Sjors, WOW!!! She looks great...all that hard work and patience is really paying off!!!!Thanks Robbyn, Also a WOW factor. You make me happy I'm glad that that is done. Now to the other tiny stuff….. Hi Sjors, She's looking very nice my friend. mobbsie Mobbsie, thanks! augie and trippwj 2 Quote Currend builds: USS Constitution by Sjors - Model Shipways - Scale 1:76 HMS Victory by Sjors - Jotika - Scale 1:72 On hold: VOC Reconnaisance yacht Duyfken by Sjors - Kolderstok - Scale 1:50 Finished builds: HMS Snake (1797) by Sjors - Caldercraft - Scale 1:64 Nuestra Señora del Pilar by Sjors & Anja - OcCre - Scale 1:64 H.M.

Those drawings from Corel are a pain in the……. They give me the clue….glue 2 blocks on an rope into a hole of 1 mm…but the rope is 1 mm I have a few eyebolts left over and I glued them into the hole Now I have to see how I fit the blocks on it.

gjdale Posted April 19, 2013 Share #407 Posted April 19, 2013 Hi Sjors, I know there are many options for sequence of rigging, but having just completed ratlines, I would recommend doing them once the mast and shrouds are in place. If you leave them any longer, such as after the remainder of the Standing Rigging (or later), you will find that other bits will get in the way. Just my 2 cents worth.

gjdale Posted April 20, 2013 Share #417 Posted April 20, 2013 Sjors, Are you talking about separating two parts of the mast, or removing it from the ship? If the former, then wood glue (PVA) can be de-bonded with isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol). If you used CA glue, then Acetone (nail polish remover) is what you will need to de-bond. If the mast is glued into the ship, then that's a whole other problem..... I don't glue my masts in place; they are held in place by the rigging. Hope this helps. Now hurry away and get Anja's dinner - she's got important Moderator stuff to do!

augie Posted April 20, 2013 Share #418 Posted April 20, 2013 Grant uses the 'floating mast' approach with the rigging holding up the mast. I cheat a little and tack glue my masts in using only very small amount of thin CA which can easily be broken away if necessary.
