Hello all. Hope you enjoy the new build. I have ordered the Pilar from OcCre, and will start on her as soon as she arrives. Check out my other builds on my channel.
Hello - your work is awesome. I am currently working on this build and have a question if you wouldn’t mind. I just completed the lower ratlines for the three masts and couldn’t understand the drawings on the 2nd layer of ratlines. The plans show them, but don’t show what to attach them to. Looks like you have pieces of wood to attach the lines to? I’m a novice - this is the 2nd build. Did I miss something? Or did you add those from your past knowledge? Looks really good. Linda
Hi Linda. I would be happy to help. Many of the real ships had these, and they would serve a double purpose. First, they would hold the shrouds apart at the top, and secondly It was a place to attach the futtock shrouds. ( The short ropes that you are talking about). If you need more information, you can try Googling Futtock Shrouds. Hope this helps. If you need anything else, check back with me. Good luck.
