@@tomships Ok, here's what I found about the sheer poles from the fabulous book, 'Historic Ship Models' by Wolfram zu Mondfeld. (I highly highly recommend this book.) Page 288. The Sheer pole; "Sheer poles were introduced in the middle of the 19th century to prevent the shrouds twisting. They were round iron bars which were seized to the shrouds above the deadeyes or rigging screws." Well, I thought they were introduced much earlier! And now you know what they are.... so we both learned something! This is such a good book. Beautiful model Sir, I stand corrected. Thank you.
Bravo Tomas.
Bravo ! Thank you so much ! 🤝👍😊
Great job. Tho only technique for ratlines there! Can I also compliment you on your shroud ties to the deadeyes. Very neat!

@@tomships Let me check when Sheer poles came into use. I thought all large sailing ships had them.
