How to Make Scale Rigging Hanks for Model Ships

How to quickly make many rigging rope hanks for 1:64 scale HMS Diana model from Jotika.
Compliments of course to Jotika for a superb kit and Sony Movie Studio.

I've tried so many different methods for making rope loops and this by far is the best. I am just completing a model sailing ship so I grabbed a block of wood and some nails and made a jig. With a little practice I was making these easily and quickly. I build in plastic so the scales are a little smaller than what you have here but I just used some smaller nails and it worked out great. The hanks look great on my model. Thanks.

Many thank. A useful technique especially when having to make over 100 hanks.

Thanks for the method. Very useful though I have to shrink it by half

This is for Greg Marini. Search for “Master and Commander Boccherini” and that should find it.

Very stupid music!

[@artsmodeldockyard8718]

That's the music from the film "Master & Commander" Far side of the world. Very apt music indeed.

You don't recognize the music? It is perfect for this subject!
