Looking great Garth and very sound advice you give.... It does get rather tight for space in between all those rigging lines and great care is needed when you have tools or your hands in amongst them.... .. Keep going in the same way and you'll have a stunning build at the end.... very well done..... Regards Alan

Hi All, Completed issue 106. (3.5 hours) Assembled and fitted the Parallel and lastly the braces. Still battling with the white balance. Looks like the White balance Cards have done the trick – editing was a breeze this time round. Kind regards, Garth Garth attached the following image(s): "Measure twice, cut once!!!" Finished!!! HMS Victory, Current build: Black Pearl. On hold: Bismarck, Golden Hind, Flying Scotsman, Victory Cross Section, SOTS, Tiger 1. Wish list: USS Constitution.
