How did you manage to drill the pattern of three holes? The above link shows how to do it without measuring. Just for your interest. Looks like you have done all of the deadeyes

Can I suggest that you shorten the breeching ropes on some of your carronades?

The breeching ropes are to check the recoil of the carronade and its base. All your's are more or less fully back so the breeching ropes should be, or just becoming, under tension.

Have a look at this picture that Charles posted of one that's actually in the run out position on the Constitution.
