Default Re: HMS Victory as a Storyboard Diorama

Hi John, thanks for posting those great pictures of Victory. I had some questions about how to hang the ship's flags on my model, and your photo answered them. I also used Longridge's book for the rigging, and have only the topgallant clues and sheets left. How did you connect your sheets and clues at the topmast? I'm having trouble with this last rigging detail. Longridge suggests a snatch block, through which the sheet is reeved, but I'm stuck when I try to figure how the end of the sheet then connects to the end of the clue.

Thanks again for the photos. Great job!

Swanny
