Trestle Trees and Spreader

s: Fashion trestle

trees and spreaders from stripwood.

Between the spreaders is a brass rod

(Figure 6-3).

Pin Saddle (foremast) and Boom Rest (main

mast):

These are laser-cut, port and star-

board halves. Make the chocks from

stripwood (Figure 6-4).

Metal Fittings:

Duplicate ironwork on

masts, booms, gaffs, and bowsprit from

brass strip and eyebolts. Refer to

(Figure 6-5) for details and procedures.

Mast Hoops:

Slip on the laser-cut hoops.

Forget them now and they’re impossible

to install later.

Mast Assembly:

Once every part has been

prefitted and mast hoops slipped on,

assemble trestle trees and spreaders on

the lower masts, then add the topmasts.

Option:

Some modelers prefer to build

mast assemblies as they rig. Step lower

masts, attach shrouds and lower stays,

then add the topmasts. Be sure to con-

stantly check alignment.

Mast Heel Tenon:

For those who placed a

flat piece over the mast slots on the cen-

ter keel (Stage 1, Step 9), cut mast heels

in a rectangle to fit the slot.

Mast Wedges and Mast Installation:

Step

masts in the center keel slots and check

their alignment. Wedge as necessary.

Don’t glue them! They may have to be

removed for restoration in years to come.

Laser-cut port and starboard rings repre-

sent mast wedges covered with a mast

coat (canvas). Shape the rings and slip

them around the masts. Secure to the

deck with a touch of woodworker’s glue.

3. Building & Installing

the Bowsprit

The bottom of the bowsprit is a straight

line. The spar is round forward of the

bowsprit bitts and square with chamfers

aft. Cut a tenon to fit the mortise in the

samson post.

Installation

: Slide the bowsprit through

the bow opening into the samson post

mortise, then glue the filler blocks on top

of it. Now complete the laser-cut platform

(Figure 5-4).
