week 68. had problems with the curved formers,after drilling ,the tops just broke away. so I removed ALL the curved formers,and re-made in .06mm. ply.soaking and elastic banded them to a jar for 48 hours to create the curves required. triple laminated to get a reasonable thickness.repainted and re-drilled. karl1113 attached the following image(s): Current builds: SotS, USS Consitution, San Felipe, D51 loco, HMS Surprise, RB7, Arab Dhow, Jotika HMS Victory Completed builds: HMS Pickel, Thermopylae, Mississipi river boat, Mary Rose, Cutty Sark, San Francisco II, HMS Victory x5, Titanic Lifeboat, Panart HMS Victory Launch, Hachette Titanic, Virginia Schooner, Endeavour Longboat. http://www.model-space.com/gb/

Hi Karl Great idea with the repair. Might be using your idea to form the formers and then drill the gun ports before fitting them in place. Nice work there! Kobus
