Very nice progress. I've been stuck on the mainland and will continue to be stuck for the next month so I have not been able to put in any work on Rattlesnake. The good news is that I'm literally an hour from completing Syren and am well into construction of the display case. I like your Rattlesnake.

I have a handfull of buckets that I never used for Syren except for the long boat but I figure they are are the perfect size for Rattlesnake. I bought them over a year ago but I'm almost positive they were from Cast You Anchor. Nope, I checked my records and they were from Bluejacket. I had to stain the one I used and had to add a rope handle, very tricky operation. I kinda like the one you have as an example.

The ones I got with the kit were more blobs of metal mesureing about 6mm the ones on thats site were 4mm then 7mm,and 8mm the deck is looking naked so I was thinking of the hanging ones on the poop deck and also gun buckets

Michel , The capstan is the only thing I've ordered from them. It looks just like the MK unit.

I think that's as good as anything out there, fantastic. Were you thinking of scratch building some leverage bars and stacking them on the deck somewhere?

Yes. but where dont know maybe make a rack on the sides of the celing(maybe around where your pin rails are)
 
If you glue using CA, you can use CA debonder to remove parts. Just a few drops and a few minutes to wait.
 
Hello TKAM I played around with the 2 boat idea not real crazy about it, with the kit boat I removed the top 2 layers then put seats and added the falkonet boat they are getting into the topsail braces going down to the bit
