  Re: Crooked mast extension bases...?
 
(...) *** SACRILEGE ALERT *** SACRILEGE ALERT *** Have you considered taking a file or something to the mast base, to put in notches in the correct places? I have, but I haven't gotten around to doing it yet. Anyone tried this yet? How did it work? (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Crooked mast extension bases...?
 
(...) I have examples of both types, but naively assumed it was deliberate. Possibly related (but probably not) is the existence of two slightly different versions of the tall rigging part. IIRC they differ in height by about half the width of one (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Crooked mast extension bases...?
 
(...) I wish. Like I said, it's not that big of a deal, just an oddity to report. And seeing that I'm not the only one helps. They don't cause that much of a problem, just the ratlines don't seat as securely as they should. I'll live, but I might (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Crooked mast extension bases...?
 
Mmmmm. I have two BSBs, one with the twist in both masts, one not. Neither of my forbidden island bits are twisted. My solution was simply to rearrange the height of the masts (as part of the Port Block refit) so that the ratlines tend to hold the (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Map of the Worlde
 
(...) Look on lugnet.cad.dat.parts, they have all been posted there at one time or another. (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Map of the Worlde
 
(...) I certainly care ! Where can I get your mock-ups ? Henrik (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Map of the Worlde
 
If anyone cares, I have mock-ups for all 5 of these parts (+ the one that is already there) and a mock-up for the tall mast base. (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Map of the Worlde
 
(...) Hello, I have a few of these parts purchased and on the way. I hope to add them to my to-do list soon. Maybe I can model them, providing no one else is working on them already. Paul (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: trade or buy
 
(...) stuff off (...) complete - (...) Man, That's a dangerous thing to say to a bunch of pirate people! Even I didn't catch the Facetiousness the first FEW times around. LOL-- what's that they used to say in the McDonald's Commercials: "Hey, It (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Crooked mast extension bases...?
 
(...) Hmm, I was just noticing a few weeks ago (just before Brickfest when I was building a bunch of pirate ships) that I have one also. It looks like at one point they must have had the mold assembled wrong (the molds are multipart), though I would (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)
