Very good !!! I see your jig for the deadeyes - very nice idea. I might have to borrow that idea if you do not mind.

I just got through this whole thread and I'm glad I did. I learned a trick or two watching this and your model is gorgeous now and only going to get better. Well done!!!

I completed the life boat and started sails. Mizzen and main sails are on the masts now. By the way, one of my friends on the net warned me about violin blocks on the mainmast yard. I checked the kit instruction again and i saw he was right, they are upside down

I am not sure if i want to remove and correct them. Probably i won't do it but i did the same mistake on the foremast yard and i will correct it because i haven't mounted it yet.

Good work, Mustafa. I am not sure if I am going to use the sails, to be honest I don't like them very much.

Or maybe I'll make a complete set out of sylkspan.

Thanks. The rigging is still in progress. I think it will finish in couple of days. My next project will be Santa Maria of Mantua.
