MS7201 RATLINER - THE SHROUD BUILDING TOOL - FOR APPROXIMATE SCALE OF 1:76 TO 1:90Whats a Ratliner? First the question: Whats a Ratline? It is a nautical term used to describe a rope ladder upon which sailors scampered up to the lower yards to furl or unfurl sails. The Ratline usually stopped at the lowest yard and from there a Jacobs Ladder (also made of rope) was used to get to the higher yards and the top of the mast. How does the Ratliner work?

What’s a Ratliner?

First the question: What’s a Ratline?  It is a nautical term used to describe a rope ladder upon which sailors scampered up to the lower yards to furl or unfurl sails. The Ratline usually stopped at the lowest yard and from there a “Jacob’s Ladder (also made of rope) was used to get to the higher yards and the top of the mast.

How does the Ratliner work?

Not much different than a loom used to weave cloth or rugs … but far more simple. Just follow the step-by-step instructions after selecting the Ratliner that corresponds closest to the scale of the model ship you are building. Ratliners come in 3 different scale ranges: MS7201 Scales  1:76 to 1:90, MS7202 for scale 1:64, or close to it and MS7203 for scales 1:35 to 1:48. If  the scale of the model ship you are building doesn’t fall exactly within those ranges … not to worry. Even being as close as 10-15% will be good.

Nothing works as well as our Ratliner to produce accurately scaled ratlines in the shortest possible time. You will never use another method or tool. 

How is a Ratliner made?  After testing many different plywoods, acrylics, plastic sheets we discovered that 1/4" thick MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) was the most stable, easy to laser-cut and durable material available with the added advantage of low cost. You'll find that your Ratliner has hundreds of feet of laser cut slots and holes. So many, that our most powerful laser-cutting machine takes a full 30 minutes to produce but one Ratliner. Appreciate the complexity and utility of this tool. 

Tools needed:  tweezers, scissors and a pick. Need some? Search our site. You'll find them.

Nice solar lights
Color: Warm White (Cylinder), Size: 8 Pack
Each of the lights is well made. Installation was easy, adding them along a dark walkway took only a few minutes. I installed them in the morning and had charged enough to provide light to the area. Look very nice and a good value for the money. Happy with this purchase and would buy again.

Bright solar lights
Color: Cool White (Cylinder), Size: 6 Pack
Great look. Cool white lights are bright and lighten my dark walkway. My only con is that the solar panels on the flat top turned white after a few months from rain/water sitting on them. The lights continue to work well, despite the tops being 'milky' white.

Gama Sonic Solar Lights: Built to Last and Guaranteed
Number of Items: 2
These lights are nice and bright and stay on all night. I have other Gama Sonic solar lights also. One of them, which I didn't buy from Amazon, had a problem so I contacted Gama Sonic directly because they have a 2-year warranty. They responded immediately and I got it fixed and now I'm happy with it. I will keep buying their solar lights because they make good quality solar lights and have a 2-year warranty.
