Virginia 1819 by Travis - FINISHED - Artesenia Latina - Scale 1:41


Recommended Posts

Was thinking about using belay pins /pin rails but scale would be small and I'm having trouble consistently turning that small.  I think I'll go back to lash on the rail.  Anyone have pics of the proper way to lash running rigging to rails?

Thanks for the feedback.  The keel channel is in now.  The breaks between the keel channel sections will allow for lines that tie the side braces to each other for lateral support.  I think this will equate to more of a British style slipway??  Working on a sled now for the side bracing.
