I'm new to this site and have liked and appreciated what I've read so far in browsing.  I have resumed a long delayed build of a 1:12 scale Dark Harbor 17, purchased from the Laughing Whale. I'm now at the rigging stage and would appreciate some advice about how to attach/use the blocks, particularly the iron-stropped blocks. They are 1/4 inch cast britannia metal and I don't see a way to attach a block to the deck or to a line. Any tips or advice will be appreciated.

Welcome to MSW Eddson,

If you could please post in the new members and intro yourself that would be a nice thing.

 

Regarding your problem, can you post some photos of these blocks?   Are they internally stropped or externally stropped?

PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.   Click on http://trafalgar.tv   There is no cost other than the 30 seconds of your time.  THANK YOU

Allan,

I apologize for the delay in responding to your post which I appreciate, things kind of got away from me. I have figured out the block issue I was asking about and have made progress. Thanks again.
