Les Moore Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 Thanks everyone. I hope the next one comes out as well. Strange as the assembly was, it paid off in the end. Rock solid, everything lined up very well with a minimum amount of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanSAR95 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Lovely build. I'd love to build one of my 2 swordfish in my stash but that rigging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch K Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 That's lovely. What's the stainless wire like to cut? I have visions of it being hellish on tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Moore Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Thanks everyone. Mitch...this wire is only .005 thick. It cuts easily with an X-acto blade. It does not harm the blade. Dan I have the wheeled version as well in the stash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Lovely Stringbag, Like everybody else has said,...you`ve got the colours spot on and it really looks the biz! Cheers Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
