Assuming there is no 3D print availabie in 1/200 I can give you the thread with the 'classic' way of doing cage masts. Photo etch will not work and as you are building in a large scale you should be able to get a nice result with brass rod.

It is actually good fun to make one. Much nicer than staring at high polygon .stl files on a computer. This is my own attempt on a build that stalled after doing the cage mast rather than before doing one.

Chris:

Perhaps you would find success with your questions In the "Calling all ship fans" area, a lot of technical and resource discussion occurs over there!

Hi everyone

Because I build models of USS California and West Virginia from polish publisher GPM scale 1:200 I'm looking for drawings for cage/lattice mast.
Thanks
Best regards
Chris
