Also I think the doors open up/down rather than left and right.

John hi john i think your talking about the extra pieces of wood on the left and right of the ports...there the gallery supports that you can see on all builds that are as far along as mine and not door hinges,there supposed to be there see pic  cheers benny

Hi benny!  Looks like you fooled them with the gallery supports, fancy thinking they were doors.  With the test paint on you can still see the edge of the planks that’s good, I bet you’re glad!

yes darron i am, as you know the vic is 250 years old and planked so that was important for me to be able to see the lines.if its just smooth it will look odd.the first planking is glued on the edges as well as the back so when sanded you wil get a smooth flat finish..just my opinion...cheers paul cheers benny
