realworkingsailor Posted November 24, 2013 Author #1142 Posted November 24, 2013 Hi Lawrence, I am home. Still trying to get back into ship building mode. I'm picking a little bit at my other build, as well as tying the odd ratline here and there on the Pegasus.

paul carruthers Posted December 3, 2013 #1145 Posted December 3, 2013 hi, just recvd my Pegasus, Amati/Victory, the wood quality is fantastic compared to that of my current Caldercraft kit HMS Cruiser
realworkingsailor Posted December 3, 2013 Author #1146 Posted December 3, 2013 Excellent! She's a great build, I hope you enjoy it! Andy Quando Omni Flunkus, Moritati Current Build: USF Confederacy
paul carruthers Posted December 4, 2013 #1147 Posted December 4, 2013 it will not be soon I'm afraid I may then give up on cruiser, the kit features the MDF keel and b/heads
Sailor1234567890 Posted December 4, 2013 #1148 Posted December 4, 2013 Sweet little build going on here. Love the look of her.
drtrap Posted May 17, 2015 #1149 Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) ........................... I just used a simple clove hitch on an angle across the stave and shroud, I would also alternate the angle: / or \, to keep the thing from twisting too much. Tie off three or four to start (spaced a couple shrouds apart). That will be enough to hold the thing in position. Let the glue securing the knots dry, cut the leftover ends and tie a few more...... Hi Andy I'm trying to understand the whole procedure but without success... Could you please help anyway? Thanks in advance. Stergios Edited May 17, 2015 by Stergios
