If you write the diameter of the mainmast near the deck, I can calculate for you
 
I counted.
Masts:
Fock stay - 1.6 mm (lanyards - 0.5 mm)
Guys - 0.8 mm (lanyards - 0.4 mm)
Mainstay - 2 mm (turnbuckles - 0.6 mm)
Guys - 1.0 mm (lanyards - 0.5 mm)
Mizzen stay - 0.8 mm (turnbuckles - 0.4 mm)
Guys - 0.5 mm (turnbuckles - 0.3 mm)

 
So far, this is only on the lower tier at the level of the masts. You can try to calculate and print it yourself. I sent you the link. If it doesn't work, please contact us.

Hi Bandido,
Radimir Beseda has created an Excel spreadsheet, available on this site, where you can input the required data at the tab "Diameter of rope". The spreadsheet then calculates the size of the ropes, blocks, etc. I have attached this spreadsheet for your info.
Hope this helps.
Trevor.
