Decided I hate doing gun rigging just took me 3 hours to do two guns, I think my vision is in need of new glasses.
The brass bar on the stern took some shaping too

Bad eyes or not your still doing a fine job.

Did a bit more gum rigging this afternoon, my stuff from Caldercraft arrived too so I fitted the first head timber making sure its all level and square.
Hi Dave I had a four month rest where I lost all interest but I found my mojo and really enjoying the build again.

Did a bit this morning and hopefully got it right this time used my book to get the bowsprit lashing correct and I got the head timber true and level we will see

As I'm fast approaching the rigging and wanting to do a good job at it, I bought myself one of these to go with my book.

Thanks John no doubt I'll be in touch
I bought the one with this Package Contents:
- Serving machine.
- Hooked wires for making beckets;
- Alligator clips.
- Wheels for making stay mouse.
- Motor, control unit, power adaptor* (only for SM4-H, SM4-F models.)
- "Endless" option (only for SM4-F model)
First question John this won't make ropes it just a serving (wrapping) machine? I would need a rope walk to make ropes?
Thanks mate If I can do it Neil you defiantly can do it
Going together well ....... Happy
Still amazing work Brian, the new front looks great, have fun
Excellent progress Brian, looking forward to seeing the rigging
Cheers guys
Back on it
