A bit of a work completed today. Was working on a main yard, actually the only one on this ship.
First created a small template to follow while doing ridging. Transferred markings on the yard and ..
Yard in the new, i called it ridging helper table...
You might noticed that i added two more clamping helpers, this time made out of clothespin. I find out that a spring clamp i intended to use has a strong grip that might be damaging some delicate wood parts in the future build so decided to replace them (actually to add) two more clothespin.. If the grip is not strong i can always add a rubber band around it..
One part completed..
A bit of a closeup..
Prep for seizing..
Two completed, two more to go..
All roping done..
Testing on the mast...
Now i need to do a bit of a research how to attach the sail. The kit plan is not quite helpful for this task...
Happy modeling to all..
