Brig "Mercury" from Amati, scale 1:64

Beautiful work Sasha.
Can I ask how you blackened the anchor hoops and nails, were they in the anchor stock or did you remove them and re-install once blackened?
Thank you. I ink on the spot, but you need to first cover the wood with oil and wipe it off so as not to stain the wood. I have a blackening agent from a gun store
 
Hi Alexander 74, I thank you for replying and posting the picture but, I can't imagine the operation. Thank you Frank
Maybe this will help. THis is a diagram from Historic ship Models by Mondfeld. Rather than the sheeve being in blocks connected to the tiller by the normal eyes and hooks, they were just put in blocks on the end of the tiller. :)

Hi Corsair, this is not the problem but , two channels (of pulleys) on the same piece how can they make independent rotation?Frank

Why not? These are two separate pulleys in one housing, simply located on one axis. Let's assume that there is a spacer between them, which is not visible at this scale.
