the comment I made was referring to the amount of frames/longitudinals going though the water tanks in the keel, i need to find a photo to explain, however it will not affect my attempt to display them |

yes the frames are very accurate, its the bilges where there is more simulated steel work that the actual vessel had, normally it would be well hidden |

Hallo,
I have been building the tweedeck construction of the midship section during the last three weeks. I noticed that you do not follow the manual, but did some kind of "prefab" of the tweendeck. It looks like it orked out pretty well. I did it as suggested in the manual, that means builing the bulkheads and then the beams one by one on top of them. Yesterday I connected my forwrd part to the midsection. It took me 2 hours and some cutting here and there. Gert Vlaanderen |

Good evening Gert
as i am intending to have most of the stbd side opened up and removing some of the decks as well as transverse frames, i thought it might be easier to do it in sections, and allows me to paint prior to fitting, i have not seen anyone else do this, but i am happy with the results |
