Yes Keith has a very sharp eye, most builders would never notice this detail that I could not easily correct. I find ordering from the USA almost impossible and on top of that there postage rates are out of this world And no way would I order from styrene!!!!!!!. I did not want to wait for an order from England that is where I buy most of my supplies. Regards Lawrence | ||

I sure do agree it is nuts what shipping from the States is costing now. UK is cheaper which makes no sense at all. Good luck. Regards, Robin ~ | ||

Good luck. Regards, Robin ~ Hello Robin, No I have not tried Crafty Sailor will have to look into him in the future. Just received word today that the Model Dockyard in Cornwall, England is closing down after 33 years. This is where I have got all of my UK parts for a lot of years now. Looks like I will have to switch over to the Cornwall Model Boats. Regards Lawrence | ||

I just checked and Crafty Sailor link HERE has rope in stock. They are a Canadian site and it would ship from Alberta. Shipping is super fast. My last order was quite large and it was here with in a week. The rope is handmade he gets it from a guy in Russia. If you go to the site set your preferred currency at the top to Canadian. He carries a number of European kits as well. Hope this helps now or in the future. | ||

I am having problems lately  For comparison shopping for rope here is the link to a German supplier "Morope".http://www.home.foni.net/~agondesen/left.htm They have a rep. in Chicago. Also they can supply larger sizes. You may need it for anchor cable at a scale of 1:48. Best regards, Keith. | ||
