There where no numbers printed with the parts and normally they are.
So yesterday I send a message to JSC and this morning at 8:30 the send me a PDF with the numbers and letters.
Great service from JSC!

Those are some tiny rails Fred. I can't tell -are they tubes or flat?

[The--Mouse]

They are flat elliott.

Just a couple of laser cut railings

Is Fred building this one, or is he the supervisor? No matter who’s building it, or just supervising, it’s looking great. Actually got me thinking I may want to build one someday.

It toke me a while, but I was building a new man cave the last 4 weeks
From this:




I build this:




And now I have a lot of space so let's go on:

On the deck are 2 ?? ( I don't know what it is)
I started to make the walls:


And some reinforcements:


and closed it with the deck.

Good to see more progress on the ship. Nice to see you’ve got yourself a man cave.

Thanks for the walkthrough and all the detail.

It helps me really appreciate all the hard work that goes into these big ships.

Where is it going when you finish it?
