.                  thankyou for offering I would like to see that, and am sure many other ship builders would also. I like the fact of what I see is the longer length rather than short which I presume can be a lot more helpful rather than the short, Thanks

Saving for: HMS Vanguard...Victory models.

finished: Bluenose11...Billing Boats... (sorry no log.

I'm working on the shroud's pin racks. IMG_20190312_121525.thumb.jpg.3caca618c4de61a3d3b1f1466f34fc4f.jpgIMG_20190312_141740.thumb.jpg.8e3958c4077aad38bf3a1a2f86635a44.jpgIMG_20190312_141728.thumb.jpg.6cf915d7d6da1ada2c0b9b6fcb838b55.jpg

I also had to found bigger dust shelter as she is going to grow soon! She should fits there just fine. IMG_20190312_142658.thumb.jpg.c1da4146350a5007ce34e8cce50810e6.jpg

Crosstree of the main top mast. I made a little jig to help with sending.

Painting: can't wait to put them into place and start rigging but they need few more Black layers. IMG_20190315_170549.thumb.jpg.7fe9c12094337e91613d530d459e010e.jpgIMG_20190315_170604.thumb.jpg.c1eae1fdcb2150488c59b77efe1e4876.jpgIMG_20190315_170739.thumb.jpg.9549bc1c0f8406e2c98a0682228c1ffc.jpgIMG_20190315_170721.thumb.jpg.fe09cfd315d376a0036980de3d99c69a.jpg

She is growing! Beautiful work. Do you paint the top black?

Hi Katsumoto, thanks for your comment. Yes the tops will be in black colour, but I still need to finish some wood work on the mizzen mast before Painting.

Hi, as promised I created review of my LEGO rope walk and rope making process. Please excuse my english, it is not my first language. Here it is: https://photos.app.goo.gl/uvgJwNMzFE9Rf7eE7

 

I can do also review of the serving machine if you would be interested.

This my setup for long ropes (Czech Beer, Slipknot music, gutermann thread, and lego bricks) . This would produce around 2m long rope. But I'm confident that it could handle much longer. The only weakness is the transition of power via belt. If you need big cable (1.5mm and more) it will start slip. But this could be solved by using gears instead of belt. I chosed belt because it is easier to remove and mount back.

Main topmast shrouds and back stays So far I'm lucky that all lines goes straight to the belaing points but it was really close!............... Mixing kit with plans was not ideal :(

I have decided to invest some more money and bought some nice blocks, hooks, staysails hinges etc. 

 

What a difference, right? IMG_20190404_140053.thumb.jpg.449e4bfe925a6db43ba1750b6962fc92.jpg

Mizzen topmast stay in place. That was the last one from topmasts "floor". Now I have to tie planety of blocks to topmasts heads. Not sure how it will go as There is not much space for all the rigging... 🙄
