At this stage the mast are all complete but having already had this situation I revisit the set of all wiring to put all the hooks and accesory that will be needed later and avoided having to do them in the middle of the ropes.      Here are the mast in place, they are rest 3 sheets 6-7 and 8 to do 6 will be mainly the stay and other wires and mast support cable   | ||

After finishing construction work at one of my son and a figurine painting contract for a friend I and a diorama 1:35 WWI for myself (I have to please myself also and it was a good change of mind) am back hard at work on the R.L. For information for that kit rigging, it is a 5 step that Mamoli give. Step one build the mast and the spar (done) Step two installing the mast with the initial spar (also done) and some advance rigging Step tree, four and five are all the rest 3 sheet drawing very clear and well done Mamoli divide all section wonderfully easy to follow and instruction contrary to build the hull are clear and precise. Each pulley each robe each road the rope have to follow are well explain and with a number. I will give you an example 429 =344+430+431=F13 429 is the main rope on the part number they tell you that it is a 0.4 rope 344 is the Mizzen mast and you start at the top 430 is the pulley at the main mast (5mm one hole) and the emplacement is clearly show 431 is the pulley where the rope is attach (4mm 2 hole) F13 is a small drawing showing how to do it They are a bit more but that give you a small look at how Mamoli did try to keep it clear and relatively easy to do So now I am on drawing 6 step 3 where all the shroud will be done, long and boring work | ||
