Hi John & Chris, Thanks for looking in and for the kind words. Finished Issue 108 – Main mast Main sail. I decided to prepare all three sails together. The process is similar to that of the fore mast. No real curve balls here. Just masses of rigging. Total Time 6 hours. Kind regards, Garth Garth attached the following image(s): "Measure twice, cut once!!!" Finished!!! HMS Victory, Current build: Black Pearl. On hold: Bismarck, Golden Hind, Flying Scotsman, Victory Cross Section, SOTS, Tiger 1. Wish list: USS Constitution.

Hi Alan, Thanks for looking in and for the inspiration. Started Issue 110 – Main mast top sail. Once again the process is similar to that of the fore mast. I skipped Issue 109 for the moment, because I have really been enjoying fitting the sales, so I thought it best to just keep going.
