That concludes this update on fitting the decking; slow and steady at the moment, but progress nonetheless.

Thanks for looking in, have a great weekend and happy modelling!Cool BigGrin

Good evening from 'The Dockyard'.

To be honest, I haven't done that much this week. I've found it goes like that sometimes, especially on a long haul project.

This post continues with laying the mahogany planking to form the decking on the aft casing.

The attached photo shows several small pieces cut to length and ready for fitting.

This photo shows a thin piece of mahogany cut length ways so that it fills the gap between the casing locker and the next plank.

Well that concludes this weeks very short update. I'm hoping to close this part of the build out next week by finishing the last section.Blink

After that I will be buying a donor model to take measurements of the conning tower and transfer those onto mine so that it resembles a 'type IV' tower.Cool

Thanks for looking in, have a great bank holiday weekend and happy modelling!BigGrin

Regards,
Phil W.
