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    Now big bone with Mamoli as they do not supply any black rope in fact some of the rope supply to be used are gold. Not a problem for me as I will do as the follow a method teach to me by Hubert Sicard I use a black marker on a small block of wood passing a few time and let it dry a few hour and at the end got a black slightly stiff cable tha is perfect  Here drawing 6 complete   2 more drawing to complete | ||

Jacobean for standing rigging and Early American for the running rigging, but they also have Ebony if you like a darker colour for standing. On your R.L. you have LOTS to stain so I do a rough estimate of lengths required, then roll the rope into a ball and dunk it in the pot. Leave it to penetrate for a few seconds, and then take it out, squeeze out the stain (It's messy and requires rubber gloves) and hang it up outside to dry with weights on the end. I guess we all have ways to torture ourselves.  Keith. | ||

But any way she's looking good and I love the machine gunner with the dirty finger nails. He must have dug himself a nice little funk hole Keith. | ||
