shadowbeyond Posted March 9, 2017 #1 Posted March 9, 2017 Has any one threaded the sails on for this kit? According to the diagram in the instructions, it looks as though they are threaded on the ends.
DSiemens Posted March 3, 2018 #2 Posted March 3, 2018 I haven't built that kit but it may be talking about the clew lines. At this scale its easier to glue them on rather than thread them. Ships I've built with cloth sails I'd cut the sails a tad big glue the clew lines down with white glue, then cut the sail down to the clue lines. This gets rid of the frayed edges and the glued lines keep them from fraying. mtaylor 1 Daniel We're ship in bottle builders, it's an occupational hazard. www.siemensbottlingco.blogspot.com http://www.bottledshipbuilder.com Current Builds: Bermuda Sloop Wood Krafters Pirate Ship Completed: 20 Gun Frigate Olympic 470 Bermuda Sloop Super Mini Queen Anne's Revenge German Cutter Mercury Santa Maria
