This is a very clever solution and defiantly a keeper.

I've been making model ships for 40 years.... Why didn't I think of this. Best tip I've seen in a long time.

I don't see how this was done. How are the combs used for rigging??

The four combs were selected for identical spacing between the teeth. They are fixed into place at right angles to make a loom, and each facing pair of combs has a long 'warp' thread woven around the teeth, going back and forth so it gradually travels along the length of the combs - like shoelaces through holes, only much longer and closer together. The other thread, the weft, is the same but it goes at right angles and is passed under and over the warp threads, and presumably secured with a discreet bit of glue or paint. This could also be done with small pins, but less elegantly.

Thanks Siwi! I have done the technique using pins, but the comb idea sounds even better and easier! I was hoping to see a picture of the 4 combs jig!
