Before installation i have tied one end of the spritsail hard sling to the yard.    Following suggestion from some other modeller' blog, i decided not to cut the rope and align the ends, instead i simply seized all three ropes.       Happy modelling... | ||

Even under 'macro' close up there is very little fuzz, discolouration from glue, or 'dag' ends to your scale rigging - impressive. cheers Pat | ||

I am testing a poly ropes (Griffin jewelry nylon) that appears very nice and as you mentioned, not that significant discolouration. For seizing on dark brown ropes i use 68% poly and 32% cotton rope, no idea who manufactured it. And for running rope will be using crochet rope, 100% cotton, dragged thru Golden Oak stain for colouring. Cheers | ||
