Sjors Posted March 9, 2017 Author #1535 Posted March 9, 2017 So, after more then 3 years I can tell you that the rigging is done.... Not the total build because there are a few things that has to be done like.....hammock netting ( yep, still to do ) anchors and lanterns. But as it goes in the whole build now and then an update. Don't ask me where all those ropes are going.....I don't know it anymore. I have done the best I can do with it. At the end it looks like spaghetti and all the time the hands are in the way. I had the feeling that tying blocks will never come to an end. Even at the last drawing I have to make blocks. I think it is to difficult to show it in the first drawings..... I try to put all the ropes on there own position but even that was not possible. The belaying pins are that small that I can not put an hair around it ! I try because you don't see the difference with my grey hair or the grey rope But i'm satisfied with it. Then rest me only one thing and that are pictures.
