I'm trying to get setup to rig the shrouds on the Trumpter 1/60th. Mayflower. I need to figure out where I can purchase the ring that goes around the lower deadeye so I can attach the chain to the hull. Anybody have a link or source? The section I need is where the pen is pointing. Once I find a supplier, I'll match the size and go from there. Thanks

Thank You!!!! that's what I was looking for. Also I found the proper name "Deadeye Strops"

Just as a point of interest, not a suggestion, based on the dates of Mayflower, triangular shaped deadeyes would have been used, not round ones. Also multiple link chains were not commonly used until much later. She would more likely have had a strop, a single link and maybe a plate as the channels were much lower than those after the early 18th century.
