discussion Making rope for my next build !

[Bri62]

Started to make rope for my next build 44 meters so far

 

[Tim Marlow]

Will no doubt save you a lot of time later Brian

Always amazes me how poor the kit rope is considering the price that is charged, although thinking about it making 1st class rope is so time consuming it would drive up the overall cost of the kit.

 

[Valeron]

Impressive

 

[Bri62]

Anyone who needs some rope making for projects etc let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Almost done with rope for HMS Suprise took me around 20 hrs.

 

[Bri62]

Finished the rope for my HMS Surprise and started HMS Agamemnon decided anything smaller than 0.5mm is not worth making and the gutermann thread is good enough (sizes 0.25 and smaller)

Looking like Bridport in miniature Brian

 

[Bri62]

Torn on which to build first, I'm going to keep both so hard decision

 

[Neil Merryweather]

[Darian Frey]

Superb looking Rope! But man that's a lot - are you going to be building something like a tall ship?

HMS Surprise or HMS Agememnon

HMS Surprise or HMS Agememnon

Awesome! I'll keep an eye out for it. I have a couple of tall ship kits in the stash but not worked up the courage to build them yet LOL.
