Max Headroom Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Well done that lady! When you've calmed down an had a well earned drink could you do a close-up of the rigging mounts? I've one of these in the stash and rigging fills me with the wobbles. Trevor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessica Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 The rigging mounts were made by twirling some copper wire over the point of one of my dental probes, then supergluing them into pre-driled holes. When it came time to string the rigging I used monofilament fishing line and short sections of hypodermic tubing. Run the line through the tube, loop it through the wire mount, and then persuade it back through the tube. Draw everything tight, secure it with a drop of superglue and trim off the free end. You should avoid caffeine for a while before trying this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
