hi friends,
The foremast is essentially complete. The upper top came out better than I expected.
It is built more or less the same as a real late 1880's ship, that is out of metal.
The metal channel can be bought in 1/32 inch size and scales to 3 inch.
The fore mast and fore topmast caps are made from sheet brass in 0.010 and 0.005
thickness. Both can be cut with scissors much like paper. The rest is wire.
I still have to add the topgallant and top shrouds.
cheers Jim
