Hi Jimmy, very pleased to see you have received your first pack, now you can get started into this wonderful world of building wooden ships. Really looking forward to seeing you get underway...Cool Cool

As for your binders, you will probably find they will be sent out as a separate package outside of the normal consignment so I'd give it a few days yet to see if they arrive, delivery times are normally within 28 days. If nothing happens then contact customer services and they'll sort it out for you...

Regards

Alan

Thats a nice bundle of wood you have, look forward to seeing you get started on her BigGrin

If you resize your pictures to 640 x 480 then when you attach them they will appear as pictures rather than downloads Cool

Is this going to be a problem seems there is a chip some wood is missing on the bottom right. I have already had to many issues dealing with c.s as a first time customer I'd rather not want to deal with them on this issue, if this small issue on part 12 won't affect or been seen I won't worry about it,

The tiny little chip at the bottom will cause you no problems at all.

Off to a great start by the looks of things, keep the pics coming I'll be following your progress....Cool Cool

Just a small point, if you resize your pics to 600x450 pixels before uploading they will appear on your post without the need for members to download...

Good luck with her...
