Hi every one , I'm at the stage of assembling the bowsprit at issue 113 and have hit a snag as follows: The mast part 1b has been made to the dimensions 4mm at one end and 3mm at the top As per the drawing supplied . The parts 173 that is the caps that fit have a 4 mm hole which is way too big to assemble it Has anyone else had this problem or have I done something wrong Regards sgrich

Look at this page of my build and you will see I referred to the problem here... http://forum.model-space...ts&t=5013&p=152
Hope this helps.. Alan
