Thanks Curt
and Vermin King...If I told you what happened you'd laugh, clearly not the way to defuzz lines.... oh well, little worse for it, in fact have improved the lines so much that am about to commit to the ratlines at least for the foremast. I think I'll tie the ends and glue where they cross each stay. It would be nice to catch up to where I am on the Tuft so can feel more completed with this model, too.
