Blue Ensign Posted April 3, 2019 #61 Posted April 3, 2019 Sorry you've lost your shipyard companion, Rusty. As someone who also has such a companion I know how much you will miss Tallie, it is a hurt that those of us with canine family members feel far too soon. What we are left with is the knowledge that we gave them a good and happy life, and fond memories of our time together. B.E.

Rustyj Posted April 4, 2019 Author #62 Posted April 4, 2019 Thank you B.E., Dubz, and Walace. Yes it is sad that our four legged mates come and go so quickly leaving a hole that is hard to fill. She was the best of a long line of shop mates! I've started the rigging of the royal yards and should have more progress soon. Also thanks all for stopping by and all the likes.

Rustyj Posted April 17, 2019 Author #63 Posted April 17, 2019 Onward we go. I'm temporarily stalled as I underestimated the amount of .008 line I would need. An order with Syren was made and as usual Chuck shipped right away. Hope to have it in a day or two! This where I am at this moment.The anchors have been re rigged and back in place. All of the Topgallant and Royal Yard rigging has been completed. I've completed the main and fore lower yard braces too. Next up is the sheets, tacks and clue lines when I receive the ordered line.

Rustyj Posted April 19, 2019 Author #64 Posted April 19, 2019 While waiting for my new line I made 4 three block assemblies. They consist of two 3/32 single blocks and one 1/8" single block. These are for rigging the lower yards sheets, tacks and clue lines. The new line has arrived and now the rigging can continue! Thanks also for all the likes.
