YEaAaAA
The gun deck is done
That big blue thing is a pice of tape holding down the
anchor ropes that go thru the upper deck.

USS Constitution

Rigging the gun doors is done in sets of 2.
I start off on one side and loop the rope
thru the door… then the hull.

Thru the hull for the other gun door then thru the door.

I tie a big knot a drop of glue on the both (knot and the loose) ends
and the and then use the foscpts to pull it tight

Here are some pictures of the gun deck.
I am about 1/2 way done ( I think )

This is an overview of the gun deck

These are the port side guns

A closeup of the guns.
Here you can see the ROPE tan thread that is on each gun

The sad part of this work is
I don’t think it can or will bee seen
once I get the upper deck on.
