 Cees,

 

Try taking to sheets of wood at half the thickness you need and laminate them together at 90 degrees from each other.

thanks for the support they are all great but I used the tip of Mark by using tworings of thin wood glued together the ring is now 0,8 mm thick and I think it looks oke .

So the first mast is standing now and I started with the rigging.

I hope the next foto the dead eyes are standing.

greetings cees

:10_1_10:Just before the end of the year the front mast is standing and i'm working on the ropes of it. The ropes I'll make of linnen . What you see is made of number 60 and that turned 3 times.

 

For everyone a nice ending of the year and a good start of this new modeling year in 2016. :piratebo5:

Nice work Cees.  Bazaan mast, I'm glad I can still read and understand Dutch  ;)  Yup, sure brings back memories.

Don't feel sorry Cees, I had to go and look it up myself - I'm an airplane guy and don't know all these nautical terms ;):rolleyes:  So then, my ship books tell me that it's called the mizzen mast. 

Now, if I can only remember it ;)

Hello all,

It took some time and a little help from a dutch forum.

But I have finished the Blinde a sail in front of the ship

I'll hope you all like it.

It was a hell of a job to make the sail by hand and I still have some more to do

Greetings to all of you
