Thank You for your kind words Alessandro.

As I mentioned, here are some photos of the spirally coiled strings.
As you can see, some have nails and a clear plastic ring.
The clear plastic ring is used to hold the nails in place (the head of the nail remains between the string and the plastic and is thus not visible). The plastic ring will not be visible either.
I already explained their function, but I'll repeat it because someone might be interested and didn't read the previous message.
I have a lot of screws on the deck to secure the removable parts.
These screws are unsightly, so I hid them by covering them with the deck board (a small piece cut out).
The small piece cut out could fly off, so I secure it by holding it in place with the spiral of string (in this case, I didn't glue the spiral; it fits together thanks to the nails).

P.S.
Jumpugly and Chugalone, I'm sorry someone has belittled your advice and the method you showed me.
As for me, I reiterate my thanks and appreciation to you.
With very small scales, the strings are so thin they can't even be held between your fingers, so you were very helpful.
With larger scales, there's no need to even mention it.
In fact, I even liked Chugalone's phase-shifting system for creating buckets. Well done.
I don't consider any question trivial, no topic silly; I think like this: if the topic isn't to my liking, I simply don't intervene, I don't participate, without disturbing others. Unfortunately, however, there are always those who have to intervene with pointless criticism, often driven by envy or acrimony.
Those who say they don't want to intervene and then write tons of messages, only to discover at the last minute that they don't like the topic—this is the real absurdity (perhaps they think any means is fair game to increase their score, who knows?).
I don't care at all and I don't think they're even worthy of a response, but I feel sorry for you. It's better to ignore them and treat these troublemakers like children, which is what they are after all.

Kind of a very simple topic. How to coil a rope? Very much like coiling a real rope, only a lot smaller and using some glue to hold it in place. No brainer, no tooling!

As for what it should look like when done, that's easy as well. Look at photos or drawings of the boat style and period being modeled. Just like everything else. A much more interesting topic would be something like how to correctly model a flag on boat.

I wasn't going to post anything on this silly topic but I am adding some closeup "coiled (and other) rope" photos of my PT61 build to show what I mean.

Hi Chugalone. You're incredibly skilled at creating tiny parts yourself.
I really admire your attention to detail and how realistic a ship model is.
Thank you for sharing more photos and illustrating the construction steps.
I think it's important to do this (i.e., include lots of photos, both general and detailed, showing the various construction stages until the final product).
This way, your work is useful to both novice and experienced modelers.

I haven't had time to make more skeins and spirals.
The ones I have ready were made using my old method (just by hand).
I'll show you later. Some have a plastic base and nails because I need them to cover the covers that hide the screws. The screws are used to hold the removable deck pieces in place.
I think I'll use the Jumpugly/Chugalone method for the next ones.
In the meantime, thanks again for your suggestions.

Chug - on the stern. Lew

Talking about "small", take a look at the "K-Tubes I made for the sub.
Many SC were fitted with "hydrophones" for detecting underwater noises, with a K-Tube device the SC had a range of 30 miles but other SC had a differente type of devise, I choose this one because is the one that SC 96 had as you can see in this picture.
The K-Tube is tided down to the side of the pilot house.

Nice one Chug👍
As my German mates would say 'Klein aber fein' (small but fine)

“Another small item I reproduced is the sets of fire buckets.
In this photo, you can see two groups of four buckets on each side of the wherry.
In the second photo, there is a different arrangement, with two sets of four buckets stowed beneath the wherry.”
This is what I came up with.

Here is a closer picture of the flag, It does have 48 stars like you said.
😎

Chug... that sub chaser looks great. One little detail is the flag should have a 48 star flag. Thanks for sharing the photos. Lew
