Hi All Made up the masts using the ramin dowel supplied, made the two tops and then used a dark stain like I did on the bow spirit. Once dry a couple of coats of varnish and then the various blocks and fittings were added. More soon Andy arpurchase attached the following image(s): Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .
