Hi Jagpilot ,
How did you make the deck treenails ? Did you burn them in using a flat-end hollow needle? Can you show me your system ?
Thanks

The treenails come laser etched from the kit.
But some had to be enhanced and I added ones that I thought I needed to. And I used a brass tube the correct size heated it and burned them in.

Sorry, I need to correct my statement. It wasn’t a brass tube. It was a stainless steel tube.

Hi
Anyone properly identified the colors and sizes of the ropes in bin 25 to 30 ?Would have been good if the sizes had been indicated in the manual and does light thread mean beige or grey ones.Thanks
