Jim Lad Posted yesterday at 01:02 AM Author #211 Posted yesterday at 01:02 AM Just a small update. I had hoped to cross the main yard while I was at the museum yesterday, but unfortunately when I secured the sail to the yard I found that the tablings had somehow ended up on the fore side of the sail instead of the after side (🤢🤢), so I had to cut it off and re-fix it, which slowed the whole process down - hopefully it will be crossed on Monday. Meanwhile I got the mast ready for the yard and continued with the starboard lower ratlines. John BANYAN, wefalck, realworkingsailor and 6 others 9
Dr PR Posted yesterday at 03:44 AM #212 Posted yesterday at 03:44 AM John, It is frustrating when I build something and then realize I did it backwards! But at least you caught the mistake before it went onto the model. And of course we have to fix the problem or it will gnaw at us forever!

Rick310 Posted 16 hours ago #214 Posted 16 hours ago Better to just correct the mistake than to have to live with it, always asking yourself why you didn’t get it right when you had the chance! Don’t ask how I know! Rick Keith Black, Dr PR and Jim Lad 1 2
