Really really small kisby rings. Yes those are 1/8” in size and you can still ready hms puncher on them
Wow! It's amazing the detail you can produce on a Resin printer. I'm having fun with my 3D printers too - I'm sticking with FDM though.
I'd lean towards white/dirty gray. In my time in the Navy, scramble nets were usually white nylon line, that got dirty over the years on the upper decks and ended up gray. NS
I'd agree - though the real sailing is done on the west coast The problem is with every photo I've seen (all black and white), like most things modelling, starts to lend itself towards creative guessing. That and the photos don't show much line between the floats, so perhaps scrambler nets weren't labelled well - you know in the yard where they put those ropes with floats to section off areas close to the ship? I can't seem to find the name for them, but I think it could equally be those. the 'bundles' are attached to the sponsons instead of the outside structure (lots of squinting to get that right) so Ill be relocating them too. What ships did you sail on NS? I was on the Van, Ott, Reg, Vic and MV Asterix.
Sandy bottom... GAT, ATH, CHA, STJ, MON, CHA, SUM, MON. Spent time at CFNES and DC School in the midst.
While I was still 'in' the Navy, I got a tour of AST as she was in Halifax doing her post-delivery work - it's a neat ship. The gym was absolutely massive. On a side-bar, I love how 3D printing is changing this hobby. It's amazing what you can hammer out of a printer and stick in the water!
I'd never put my printer in the water either! ;-) On the other hand, I've 3D printed a Liberty ship in 1/96 scale - quite functional. (77) 1/96 Scale 3D Printed Liberty Ship completed - YouTube And right now I'm in the middle of 3D printing two ships - one is a "Bensworx" Castle Class Corvette - she's going to be finished as HMCS St Thomas K488, the other is the Titanic.
