Friends, hello everyone!
I had a short vacation, and construction of the model was suspended. Now I'm back and here's some progress in my work. I assemble the deadeyes and shrouds, install them on the channel and attach them to the hull. The line of the stay cables must continue the line of the stay cable, so I apply a rope to determine the inclination of the stay stays

It's always nice to see your progress reports! Wonderful, precise work.
Thanks Paul
Heinrich, so much has already been invested. And it’s not just thoughts here. Search for information, thought process, embodiment in wood, mistakes, rework, embodiment again. And a constant search for information on each individual element. I love this whole process

I know this process only too well, Sasha. If this is done properly, few people can fathom the amount the amount of time that goes into it.
Friends, hello everyone. Thank you for your kind comments and likes. Continuation of construction. Over the weekend, inspiration came to me and I made a chimney. I cut a blank from a copper sheet, 0.3 mm thick, to size. Bent it according to the template and solder it. Same with the second element. Unfortunately, I didn’t take a photo of this moment. The remaining stages are in the photo.
The pipe turned out to have elements of wear. It turned out to be natural wear and tear

Very good result on the chimney - looking good
Impressive workmanship on this little part Sasha!
Good morning Sasha. Way to go. Looks like the real thing. Brilliant as always. Cheers GrantFriends, hello everyone. Thank you for your kind comments and likes. Continuation of construction.

Hello friends. Work at the shipyard is going on little by little and in different directions. I finished installing the deadeyes and shrouds on the channels.
Made and tried on tack bocans
I started preparing to install the rigging. So far there are only blocks of forestays and backstays on the bowsprit. For comparison, a block from a magazine and a homemade one.
Preparation for installation of the wall-shroud deadeyes. To do this, it was necessary to make cuts in the mars. I made a template for the shrouds and made a slightly larger cut according to its dimensions. The cut turned out to be 0.5 mm wide and 1.5 mm long. I did the left/right side synchronously so that it would match. Well, I tried on the guys puttens.
Good morning Sasha. Brilliant and accurate. You are not missing a thing. Just out of interest which rigging plans/references are you using as it looks spot on. E.g the spacing of your deadeyes on the channel,the blocks in bowsprit and toggles for the multitude of blocks beneath the tops….Love it and stunning work Sasha. Cheers Grant
Grant, hi.
I use the anatomy of McKay and Longridge. In Longridge, each tackle is described in detail, the diameter, where it comes from and where, and through which blocks it goes. All that remains is to combine some points on the model. Sometimes not everything is clear. Just yesterday I was looking for how the martin boom rigging goes through the bowsprit and is attached to the lugs. Spent 2 hours searching
