kiwiron Posted January 31, 2015 Author #294 Posted January 31, 2015 Thought I would do the bowsprit yards before I moved on.The colour instruction book has the yards mounted further up the bowsprit than the plan so another part to put where I think looks right.I looked at the rigging plans to see which angle the blocks should be placed.The bowsprit came out ok for me lots of Endeavour logs are amazing,way beyond my skill level.

kiwiron Posted February 3, 2015 Author #300 Posted February 3, 2015 Thanks Mark,bit of a guessing game between the instruction sheet sizes,plans with different sizes to that and locations of parts and the colour photos from what must have been a prototype build all different. mtaylor 1 Quote Current builds: HMS Victory - Caldercraft 1:72 Completed builds: HMB Endeavour - OcCre 1:54 HMS Supply - Caldercraft 1:64.
