Yes Ron at most hobby shops.It comes in most any size you need.The one I used was 1.5 mm wide and .7 mm thick.Could have been a little wider but it's what I had on hand.

 

Daniel,yes most of us old goats need a pair of cheaters to see with.

Hello Again.A very good week.Sometimes things just go right some times they don't.The topsail sheet bitts were not as bad as i had them made out to be.I built the frames for the hatches but the grid I cannot take credit for as they were left over from a kit.

 Forward men up the gangway ladder to the gangway,Oh I forgot I don't have those yet :D

Larry,

 

Looks sharp.  Very nicely done.   Hmm... going to add to the stern and bow of the cross-section?
