Amazing work, as usual Ferit! Isn't it nice to see the ship finally start to move upward? It would be nice to see a profile shot with the mast to get a sense of the height - no pressure, of course!! I know it's far ahead, but are you going to add the sails?

Very nice :)

Absolutely stunning Ferit! I get so inspired every time I look at your build.

 

Thank you for encouragements, much appreciated... :)  :)  :)

BTW, I have taken the photo of the main topmast via the floor of the upstairs neighbour thanks to his permission... :D

Best Regards…

Very nice work Ferit.

I have one question. When do you getting the shrouds over the top?

Hi Juergen,

Many thanks for your kindness...

I had thought that it would be easier to rig the shrouds when they had been tied or fixed on a stable stand... My thought was that rigging shrouds around an immobile mast might be more comfortable for me... :huh:

Beautiful work as always Ferit.

A wise decision I believe...

A drop of glue on to the bottom of the masts will hold them in position until shrouds are tied. My belief is that it's always better to do it "on board". 

 

(if I understood you right, you want to do the shrouds after stepping the masts?)
