This is just so much fun. Late getting started...second cup of coffee  plus Gobsmacked by @Keith Black sunshine  picture,  I slowly started ratlines.  Finished the Mizzen  , got all the main and formast  marked out ready to go. The most important thing for me to remember  is tie the ratlines at the top of the mark. After  I tar them  they will look good.

Two more swivel  guns back in the box, lol.

Four left.  😁

Hopefully by the end of the day the lower ratlines  will be finished. 

Big thanks to all who have  showed me how to tie ratlines,  I might side track to the Futtock shrouds,  if I get to frustrated,  I will tie a few rats 🐀. 

 I might even put the upper  Mizzen shrouds and ratlines on.  😁. Weeeee!!

Yee haaa , lower ratlines are finished. 

 

On to the upper shrouds and ratlines,  then the bowsprit mast needs to be rigged.

A couple of days, then I need to start making the yards. 

Things are going fantastic,  ratlines  will do that to you lol.

Really  taking  my time now, I want to rig it just right.

Futtock shrouds and upper ratlines are next up.

Thanks for peeking in,

My Catharpins on the foremast are a bit shaky, lol. The hands are definitely shaking today, but a little  ca helps, Once tared they will look fine.

Kurt Builder just rolled his eyes .

I am going to rig the upper  shrouds  on the main mast then I will do the Catharpins on the main mast. After that I will tie the Mizzen mast up, then do the Catharpins, that should give me enough time in-between each Catharpins. 

 

So jig on the main upper shrouds, ratlines to follow. Kurt doesn't seem to understand my fasanation with rat lines 😁. The upper shrouds are tied on ready  to go,

Kurt  needs  a nap , sounds good to me as well, later my friend's. 

 I picked up this little  vise to help me with the yards, awhile back I saw this here on one of the logs, I was not paying attention to who posted but I liked it so ordered one, 20 bucks and you get drill bits and a pin vise so for me good deal. I needed the bits anyway. 

  Shrouds and ratlines,  I am on cruise control,  full speed ahead.   😎.
