I have 3 masts I want to use in a ship I'm building in the future, probably around August. I'm gathering parts for it. I don't have any platforms for the masts. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas of how to make platforms that will fit on the (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jun-04, to lugnet.pirates)

Impressive! Kind of makes me want to build the HMS Surprise, the ficticious frigate from the Patrick O'Brien novels, and more recently the movie. It's a little smaller than Old Ironsides. I'm going to bookmark that for inspiration. (20 years ago, 7-Jun-04, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)
