I have one logical question. Why is no one making this wonderful model with rigging or even with sails? Yes, I understand that the kit doesn't include this. But there is anatomy that has all of this—the dimensions and proportions, all the rigging and tackle. It would be great if someone did it that way

‏‏‏good evening dear friends
After weeks of meticulous work on the gun carriages including all the required equipment and components, as well as correcting mistakes and inaccuracies that I was privileged to learn from the comments of the members here.
I am happy to announce that today I was able to install the first of the 12 carts.
I would like to clarify that I decided to install a partial deck under the cart and under the rear rope winder, the intention is to give the same height to all parts, while maintaining a respectable configuration.
I admit that it was not my day, I felt like I was working like an "elephant in a china shop" = many breakdowns and breakages including self-stabbing my thumb with a tweezers that I pressed too hard.
In addition to that, the installation was not easy for me because of the small size of the parts and the small work area into which the cannon cart fits.
Finally after about 4 hours of work including additional browning of the cannon using a fine brush, I was satisfied with the result.
The lessons that achieve from the produced today, will be incorporated into the work process of the following carts.
Until then, I wish us a good and blessed week
