Nice videos about rigging

Hi, a new modeller here with a Billing boats Norske Loeve. 

I have been modelling plastic model kits and also RC airplanes for a long time, but I have always dreamed about a wooden ship.

Now I got myself self a started kit from Billing boats. The kit is laser cut and the previous builder has made nice job on the frame and planking.

It seems to have some hangar rash, but all in all nice condition. I started my journey with seeking information and so I found this site!

 

Here are two videos I found from Youtube,  which have very nice info on these old sail ships!

 

Hope someone else finds these valuable to watch!

These are a great find!  Well produced and fairly well detailed.  Especially great resource for anyone new to the craft/

Thanks for sharing these links Mika, these videos could be very useful, especially for those still learning their way around the nomenclature used with the various timbers that made-up a vessel.

 

cheers

I liked the videos so much, I end up watching also how Hooved dam was constructed etc. Lot of really nice videos on the channel!
