I have made a boo-boo re the cannon rigging.
Managed to cut the thinner cord to the wrong lengths and am now short of about 200mm to complete the last 4 cannon.
Can anyone tell me where to get some replacement cord or has any member any surplus that they can let me beg.
Thanks to anyone that can help.

If you have a craft shop anywhere near you, try looking in there, they stock all sorts of cottons, cords ect...I wanted some 2mm white cord to use on my Victory anchors when the time comes to fit them...The craft shop had an unbelievable stock of stuff...Well worth a look, as no doubt, when it come to rigging Vic, we are bound to run out of the appropriate twine somewhere along the line????Blink

Cheers Guys, will have a look in the not so local craft shop when next in the area.I guesse that the size/dia of the thread is not that critical so long as it is fairly close.Cannot believe that I made such a stupid mistake on something so simple.
Once again many thanks
