Not yet. Hopefully Keith will give us an update.:beer:

Another project for this weekend (or next). I know I have some somewhere. I use to blacken case bottoms when I drilled out primer holes in .38 cases for shooting wax bullets so the primers wouldn't...

When I saw you online, I knew it was the right time to ask the question. I'll give it a try this weekend.Thanks Rory:drinks:

Speaking of ratlines, has anyone come up with the best way to paint them without clogging up the tiny openings at the very top? Even when I dry brush, the dullcoat (spray) still fills in the very top...

Neil, look at the SGN# on the box the ship came in, i.e. SGN104C the HMS Zealous, HMS Superb = Keith's ratline # 104.:beer:

Keith, when will the Anchorage start taking pre-orders?

Welcome:beer: from Arizona Vince. The Colonies need more French players.

Will this help?

I'll feel better when you start taking pre-orders. :beer:

Brass will do for me also.
I would think ratlines for the 1st rates and sloops would be a bigger seller since 3rd & 4th rates have been out.:beer:

Is it possible to go with brass a bit thicker than the last lot?

I also like Rory's & Ken's suggestion about the upper tip of the ratlines being flat instead of pointed.:beer:

I'll second that:beer:

Stainless for me if you're still deciding :beer:

Much appreciated. Crews are complaining about making them shimmy up the masts to change sail settings.:beer:

Wish I could help. I hope there's someone on this or the WOG site that could.

Is there any word on ratlines for SGN106 & 108? You would be the only one producing them for 1st rate 1/1000 ships.:beer:

Is that the netting that was sold by Langton? :beer:

In my experience in dropping ships, (which is extensive) if it lands on or near the base chances are it's OK. Drop it on or near the foremast or mizzen, you'll have a problem. :beer:

I don't think the thin brass helps strength at all. But stainless steel might.

My preference is stainless. Thin brass damages too easily, at least with my ten thumbs.:beer:

Has the stainless steel vs brass question been settled yet?

Excuse the pun but, a 1st rate job Jim.:envy::beer:

Dam_ French copycats.:drinks:

+1. I agree with Kipp.

Has Keith said anything about wave 2 ratlines yet? The weak wave 2 masts need all the help they can get. Maybe the ratlines should be made out of stainless steel.
