Fore/main topmast and fore/main topgallant are tapered on the mini wood lathe..
Acorns for topgallant were prepared next; it just need a hole to be widened a bit.
Main mast was tapered to required shape as well.. The top part was cut in square shape and tested with cap..
Then i was installing mast cleats. It is a bit challenging to get them in correct position...
... but managed to get it correct. Holes were drilled and cleat with a piece of wire inserted into mast.. a bit of a glue was dropped to fill the gaps between cleats and mast...
Boom pads knees and pad was installed next.
Then i widened the opening for a mast... it is a bit scary to use a rasp but rasp provided the easiest control of the depth..
All parts were mounted on the mast with superglue....
A bit of a work on topmast...
Removed laser burns from topmast cap...
A nice layer of stain was applied...
Topgallant/topmast achtkants were next. I used a needle covered with little wax to hold the parts while glue them together.
They slide off easily with almost no wax residue on them..
Happy modelling..
