Sailing ship rigging on "How Do They Do It"

[HSM]

Discovery Channel here in Canada has a program called "How Do They Do It", and one of the pieces on tonight's show is on how they make rigging for sailing ships. The example they are using is the Cutty Sark.

 

The show is 1/2 hour long and there are 3 segments to a show so the rope making part will be about 6-7 minutes long. Not much, but then again there is not much for our types on television these days :-)

 

Interesting program if anyone wants to search for it in their local area!
