HMS Alert [1777] 1:48 POF by serikoff. (Two hulls: skeleton and fully rigged)

Beautiful modelling, Sergey!

Question - isn't the eyebolt off by 90 degrees on this part?

Thanks for the praise. Yes! eyebolt, "Enlarge 90 degrees" is incorrect in the anatomy! The cable passed through these holes and served as handrails. And since the cable runs along the deck, the holes should be positioned so that the cable doesn't zigzag at the bottom of the passage.

I'm just finishing up transcribing the basic rules into the drawings today and updating my original drawings for everyone to download. There are many corrections to the anatomy errors, of which, unfortunately, there are a lot.

P.S. Thanks for the question... I just realized that the cylindrical shape doesn't engrave very well, and I'll remake it into a more square one.
