Srenner Posted January 27 Author #181 Posted January 27 Its been an epic couple of sessions on the rigging and im loving it but the arms get tired holding them up and trying to get very fine motor skills out of them. Fore stay and preventer stay has gone in and i did try and worm and snake them... first effort but im reasonably happy with the result. Its a bit of a worry as it was tricky and a lot of work had gone into the stays anyway. I know there should be hearts instead of deadeyes on the fore stays but the kit came with bugger all hearts so deadeyes it is.
Srenner Posted 6 hours ago Author #182 Posted 6 hours ago I love rigging ships! But it is fiddly work. Been working on the spirit sail yard area and taking direction from lee's book for 1720 following as much as i can. Decision point coming up.. unclear if grethound had a outer topmast preventer stay and if that had a block and tackle the same as the inner stay after passing the bees. Quite proud of the horses.
