semorebutts Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share #1083 Posted January 25, 2019 I have a stupid question. I’ve been thinking about how to make the thing i’ve circled in the photo. Any ideas? I’m clueless but I think it will make the rigging much better if I can make some of these.

RGL Posted January 25, 2019 Share #1088 Posted January 25, 2019 Cog’s right (of course I am! I can just hear him), I have several different diameters of denier rigging in black and in white.

semorebutts Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share #1090 Posted January 26, 2019 I have 3 different ezlines its great stuff. Thank you everybody for the tips. I actually have two choices. I had a look at some of my extra photo etch sheets. The one I circled in blue seems to be just perfect for that. But then there’s also the piece I circled in red which also seems absolutely perfect with holes in all the right places. Which one should I use? lmagna, popeye the sailor, Old Collingwood and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGL Posted January 26, 2019 Share #1091 Posted January 26, 2019 The red circled one is for the stairs that go down the side of the ship ( I believe) , I have no idea what the blue is for but would suffice. mtaylor, Old Collingwood, popeye the sailor and 2 others 5 Quote Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semorebutts Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share #1092 Posted January 26, 2019 Yes the red is for stairs. Thats the pontos PE. I’m going to use Mk1 PE for the stairs. lmagna, Canute, popeye the sailor and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semorebutts Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share #1101 Posted January 26, 2019 (edited) Thanks guys! I just wish i had more time. Its going slower than I would like. But definetly very Fun! As for my next build, it will probably be the Missouri just because I already have it ( i just have to spend the $300 for all the pontos for it) I’m struggling between blue deck or teak deck. The yorktown would be my perfered next build in a perfect world. Also I just bought a 1/35 isreali tank. So that might be going on the side.
