JimO Posted January 29 Author #66 Posted January 29 (edited) So ends another day but not a lot done. Made some hatch rope. Adding ropes to gun port covers and then install. Edited January 29 by JimO davyboy, GrandpaPhil and Baker 3
JimO Posted January 30 Author #67 Posted January 30 (edited) Yet another day done. Short time spent finishing gun port hatches. Cut some dowel for yard arms and tied them up to see what they would look. My Airfix 1:35 scale Ferret Scout Car finally arived after over a month. May take a ship break and do the ferret turretless version that I drove and later commanded back in the mid to late 70s. Edited January 30 by JimO PeSt, GrandpaPhil, Baker and 1 other 4

Someone still using the head.😜 Edited February 4 by JimO Baker, PeSt, GrandpaPhil and 1 other 4
JimO Posted February 7 Author #71 Posted February 7 Spent most of the day making kingposts and dead eyes etc and added shrouds to rear mast. After rigging the port side shrouds to the channels and chains, I thought good but after a few hrs I felt something was wrong. Then sadly I noticed the channel dead eyes were wrong. Grrrrrrr. Need to redo them. Wasted time. davyboy, Snug Harbor Johnny, Maxthebuilder and 3 others 6
