Jared Posted Friday at 05:00 AM Author #304 Posted Friday at 05:00 AM (edited) Time for some holiday season fun. My nephew who lives in Singapore gifted me a laser cut wood "sailing ship puzzle" when he visited last year. Needing a break from rigging my FF, I had a go at it this week. I was quite amazed by the very high quality and precision of the laser cut pieces (photo 1). It was actually quite a fun build! While it bears only minor resemblance to a real tall ship, I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to interest a child in getting into our hobby. Seasons Greetings!

Jared Posted Monday at 08:09 PM Author #305 Posted Monday at 08:09 PM Gaff & Spanker boom mounted and rigged. Quite delicate work. It was made much easier by not having the mizzen backstays and shrouds in the way. berhard and gak1965 2 Quote
