I'm currently up to month 9 on this build. Are there any suggestions on how to support the model now that I'm getting to the rigging stage. I've received months 9 and 10 and nothing has come with the kit.

Thanks
Bill

BigGrin Hi billy

You could try making your own stand or use pre made one like they have here at CMB. I know your over the pond so the link is only as an example of what is available, Im sure there are simular stands available in the USA/Canada.

Hope this helps

Hi Billy, not sure if this is your first build or not but for me I wouldn't be without the Occre Work Station, invaluable for ship building with plenty of storage space..... Andy (arpurchase) also published a diary on putting this together you may like to take a look at....

Hopefully something similar would be available for you on your side of the pond.....

Regards

Thank you all for your recommendations. I think I'll build my own "Dry Dock". I'll look forward to the display stand when it is available.

Thanks
Bill
