Nice progress, Mike. You are waiting for turnbuckles? You are not using the Gaspatch ones in the kit (which I didn't use when I built mine, by the way). Cheers!

I used the resin Anchors, but I'm always a bit suspicious of resin turnbuckles.
The kit supplied are nice but of a softer, more flexible resin.
Rather than have one break part way through final rigging, I chose, like you, to use the metal versions from Gaspatch,
