Hi everyone I've just completed all the lower mast rat lines detailed in Issue 116 using the method at Item 21 - and a needle to thread and make the knots - of which there are just under 1600... (I counted them)... I used a couple of pieces of 5mm x 0.05mm spare planking secured with mini alligator clips as a gauge to keep the rows straight, reducing the gauge length every 5 or 5 rows... ... It all worked a treat, but it seemed to take forever!... Regards to all JohnP John Passmore attached the following image(s):
