drtrap Posted February 19, 2023 Author Share #1112 Posted February 19, 2023 (edited) I ve left a lot of spare fittings and rope-threads to improve later as a final touch up procedure. Now I really feel that i'm close to the finish. I plan to create a custom made base and to support/stabilize the keel with those two 2mm metal rods. I hope the model to be stable and safe Edited February 19, 2023 by drtrap Beef Wellington, AJohnson, chris watton and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtrap Posted May 21, 2023 Author Share #1119 Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) Small, current updates of my work I've left a lot of spaghetti-threads on the deck just to feel secure enough before I freeze or trim them down. A real symmetry of the lines and the respective tension of the threads is needed at this stage Edited May 21, 2023 by drtrap RossR, egkb, BenD and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
