Very good result - very good work on the masts
Thank you very much friends. Thanks for the like..
I was still missing structural elements on the tops supports. So late, but added..

Great job, in every details !
Thank you very much kirill. Thanks for the like.
Moving on to the tops. Creating an accurate 0.75mm thick wooden hoop took some trying. Finally, I looked at the production system on the dividing device under the mill. The dividing device was a bit wobbly, I found a system on the net to adjust the length of the collets and center them..
Base plate leveled on a lathe..
Milling works great by rotating the hands..
Board nails..
The board is glued to the hoop and carefully cut off..
Milled to the correct strength..
Now the top hoop. She is very fragile..

very clever idea to make such a ring - many thanks
Hello Stef. From the beginning, the dividing device was not symmetrical. It was not enough to clean with gasoline and lubricate. Therefore, it was unusable for precision machining. I found this video on how to adjust the length of the arms myself to clamp the material in the middle. I had to take it out and put it back in many times but it worked!!
I also found other videos on how to modify microtools to work accurately without backlash. I'm waiting for it gradually.

Thanks, I know this builder for long, Here he is on YouTubeHello Stef. From the beginning, the dividing device was not symmetrical. It was not enough to clean with gasoline and lubricate.

The second plate weakened under the cutter. After 0.1 mm, it removes sensitively..
Continuation of making hoops. My first attempt from the board broke years later. Second attempt according to reality from glued parts..
I had the cutters narrowed to 3 mm to shape the posts..
Now I will gradually create the shape of the posts, then they will be cut..

Thus, the production of column tops had two episodes.
The first, of course, is an exam. The direction of the flight of wood betrayed me. The second attempt was successful..
The top of the main mast dries, After waxing, nails and other details are added. The second top will be a piece of cake..

Wow, looks great, absolutely beautiful implementation.
Very good execution - many thanks for showing us the working steps
Great result
Great result
I am amazed by you guys from eastern country. You are genius with your hands (and brain) for handcraft skill and machinery skill. I saw the serving machine and the rope machine from the russian guy and this is a beautiful artistic and engineering work.Hello Stef. From the beginning, the dividing device was not symmetrical.

Thank you very much friends, I appreciate your words.
Tops received mounting elements..
Like the pattern of Barents boat tops..
Here is a beautiful series about construction :
Finished tops..
So it's rope and block time..
Just wonderful work, Ondras! Congratulations!
