Hi Rob,

I think the mouse is running backwards...chubby part toward the loop...

Opps. Darn. Thanks dockattner. I'll try to get it right next time. I've already CA glued them in place.

. I'm calling this one is finished. I'll call it a ship wreck. Was close to finishing the rigging and my lighted magnifying glasses (can't see the fittings without them) caught on the mast. When I moved I broke the mast (a different one from last time) , connector between the lower and upper mast and crows nest. I tried holding things back in place but the the standing and running rigging are all out of shape and I can't get the crows nest back in right place. No big deal. I enjoyed building this little ship

Most people won't see the errors or mistakes. They will look at the ship as a whole. Congratulations on the completion of this nice kit.

regards,
Peter

Sorry to hear the accident happened - but Congratulations for "finishing" her - I fully understand you.

And what is coming next? Hope to see a new building log

There's several builds and web builds to help.

Overall a good looking build. I was taught by the master ship builder in local club to never glue masts into the deck, just incase one needs to remove and repair or replace a mast.

Heck here is Oklahoma we get such high winds that poles get broken at times, even a mast of ship at dock can suffer storm damage.
