Tiziano,

I am very impressed that you only made one extra spoke on each set.  I tend to make several knowing I will lose at least one under the work bench and/or break one along the way.😀😀  Are you using a mill or some other unit to mill the grooves?    I don't remember if you and I discussed this when we met last year but for those without a mill, a mini table drill press to route out the grooves when making these parts can be used.  It is not really a recommended use of a press due to the types of bearings, but it worked out very well.

I think full-size cabinetmakers would be jealous of what you have been able to accomplish with the binnacle and belfry. Not to mention the ship's wheel!
