 | | Good string for rigging
|
| Ahoy Pirate Mateys! I've found a string that works well as Pirate ship rigging. It's called Speed-Cro-Sheen. It's thicker than thread, thinner than yarn, and of a fairly dense wrap. AND it comes in black (as well as a lot of other colors). It's just (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)

| (...) Sorry old man, not really an interiors kind of guy me. I had four different goes at paddle gear and wasn't happy with any of them, before I realised that none of my efforts could be seen through the fairing and grille around the wheel. Now, (...)

| (...) There aren't too many cases where capital ships have even come into direct contact with pirates. One example I can think of might be Britain versus Zanzibar, 1880--pretty much a war against illicit trade and outright piracy given haven by the (...)

| (...) Very nice! It looks very customised, which is to be expected of any ship built on-site like that--fearsome, black-smoke belching monster that it is. Do you have any closer pictures of the paddle gear, and has the steam engine been detailed? (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.pirates)

|
| Hi all, In anticipation of my being Lego-less in the upcoming year, I decided to make use of these designs I've been scratching out for the last six months and build a new capital ship. It's not _Gloire_ or any modification thereof, but rather a (...) (24 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.boats, lugnet.general) !

I can't recall if the Forbidden Island I have has them; that set (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)
