Organ tech Posted August 2, 2021 #38 Posted August 2, 2021 I am currently building this exact model (my 1st attempt at a model, save for a childhood failure with the Revel Constitution). You have done a wonderful job! I decided, after adding my standing rigging to the foremast, that the supplied thread is to thick for the model scale. I have since moved to much thinner thread. Quote
