Hello all from Sunny Queensland. have been a member now for a few weeks but this is my first post. Hard at it reading the build forum to find out all I can about HMS Victory. This will be my second only build.I am almost finished partwork HMS Endeavour about 8 more parts. Like most, learning all the time but a long way to go. Australia starting a long way behind you guys from the UK, hope to see some Aussie build logs.Have received only the first 3 parts so far, but hope to start a build log in the near furture. Regards to all  Regards

Issues 4 to 7 arrived today. Issue 3 is apparently still in the post.  Failed to build Endeavor.
Determined to complete Victory.

It's not a part that is ever going to be seen so if you make the part to the same dimensions as the part you have, I can't see any major problems with that.

So far it appears all of us in Australia are missing the second 7a piece.
Not a good start.

Not a good start. No, I actually did get both I'm glad to hear someone got both parts. I just fabricated a new part from spare ply instead of having to deal with sourcing a new issue. Seems that there is a lot of people missing the second part though. Is anyone else missing it?

Don't bother going there. You won't get any sort of answer from DeAg about how or why this occurred.
