Heel Cup and Varnished Bits

I experimented with the whole stainless polishing thing with the heel cup cause I figured if I botched it all up nobody would really see it. I think it turned out pretty good so I followed that pattern on the rest of the pieces before I put them back on the mast.
The weather was perfect for varnish. I laid out all the wood pieces and put many many coat upon them... the rest of the down below area would be next, but this one other looming task was getting in the way if even starting that project.
