Dr PR Posted 17 hours ago #96 Posted 17 hours ago John, Things are pretty small at 1:192 scale! I have had difficulty with the small pieces at 1:48! You are doing a good job.

You are doing a good job. YES! Working on a pair of Catheads now. Drilling out the triple block in the end is challenging. CAN’T WAIT TO START RIGGING. I think some blocks will have to be a painted knot 🪢 LOL 😂 Edited 9 hours ago by John Ruy ccoyle and Ian_Grant 2 Gallery Photos of My Charles W Morgan Currently working on New Bedford Whale Boat
