Re: [bolger] Tufnol / Phenolic Blocks
Jon,
Classic Marine (a British company) has Tufnol blocks. They will send a
catalog and ship to the US.
<www.classicmarine.co.uk>
Another source is Davey and Company, another British company. They have
an US distributer who can supply a catalog,
R&W Rope Warehouse.
<www.rwrope.com> 1-866-577-5505
One other source that I am aware of is Toplicht, a German company.
They also will send a catalog to the US, though it
is mostly in German. There is an English index, however, and English
names for each item, and almost everything is illustrated so the
language issue is not as big a handicap as it might seem.

Anyone know a mail-order source for Tufnol (phenolic resin) blocks?
These look somewhat like wood and go well with traditional rig styles.
I have them on my Light (cat) Schooner and would like to get some cheek
blocks to set up jiffy reefing. Thanks in advance,
