Dust :angry-cussingblack:

Yikes, I removed the Cutty from my display case after 30 years to complete the running rigging, and, oh my gosh, the dust!!!!

I used a damp brush which was a mistake as the varnish on the wood pealed slightly, so had to revarnish. Done with the rigging after 10 weeks. WOW, the most amazing wind-machine ever devised by Human. It is beautiful with all the lines resembling a spider's web.

Just removed the Royal Louis from the display case after 20 years to install the masts and rigging. MORE DUST. Display cases enclosed in glass, but that doesn't keep the little dust-critters from creeping in.

Please advise how to safely remove the dust. Compressed air for computer may be too brutal for the fragile blocks and lines. Water...NOT. What's left?

Appreciate your help. Thanks much...Jerry
