 Hi all The standing rigging is almost done on the mainmast, just the upper mast to do and then its the rat lines to finish. The rigging instructions provided look complicated but each rope is numbered as are all the attachment points so once you work out the run its quite easy. She is starting to look the part now I think. More soon.

Thanks for looking in and your comments everyone. You may have noticed in the pictures the upper rear mast is not quite straight this is because the upper cables from the rear mast to the front mast just need readjusting. The run of these cables goes from the rear mast to the fore mast and then down the mast to be tied off at its base. After the rat lines are finished and the final adjustments done it will stand as it should. Andy Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

Looks fab with the rigging bringing it to life “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”
