Sorry Jim,
I have not done the rat-lines yet, Just the shrouds.

Very interested to see the ratlines work, Rory. I think I hate putting those on more than anything in the total assembly. Cheers!

Rory,

Sorry for the confusion. My post should read 50x75mm.

Shipmates,
I must now do the standing on the "Selafail 74" before I can start the running rigging. Why! the "Selafail" has more sails set than the "Venera", so will be more helpful. Bad planning on my part. I will do this as fast as I can. I will be back with, as Jane call's it "stringing". I know for some of you this is as far you will wish to go. There is more. But post if you wish and I will answer you. Thanks so far for liking this thread.
Be safe

You make the ratlines look so easy!!!?? Maybe the more I do them the easier it will get, but I can tell you from my experience that they are incredibly fiddly and love to pop off even if you just touch the bottom. Thanks for the tips and photos.

Don't forget to have Jane help. You know what they say, "The family that plays together, stays together".
At least that's what my second X told me.

Jim,
I cannot paint like you. I try, but no. But I do try. Don't let a piece brass get into your head my friend. I know you will win in the end. Try working up-side down on one side!

Wow Rory, you have been busy! I love this thread. And I have learned a few things I am going to try. Sorry for not commenting for the last week. There was absolutely no data or wyfi where we were .

Good Vol,
Time for you and your family. I'm so glad you are home, my friend.

Ed,
We play a lot together. We also play apart. Sometimes we need to do our own thing. "Stringing" is one thing Jane thinks is best I do alone.

P.S. I'm one of the luckiest men in the world.
