Hi! After a very long time I want to show you my new project. A very good friend showed me this kit of the Wasa gundeck from Corel, it was offered at Ebay Italy. Today it arrived and of cause it must be opened :-) I think this kit must be older, but I can´t find any production date (anybody knows???) It´s 1:24 scale, it will be a big baby..... At the last pic I placed a 5 pence coin to show the dimensions. Best regards, Bernd der Gohfelder attached the following image(s):

Hi, thank you all for your very kind comments! I´m very happy to show you a "new" model, perhaps you can give me some ideas for modifications! Today I started with the build. OK, the instructions are very short, but the plans are ok. I decided to build it close to reality. I started with teh gratings, but I don´t want to mount them like usual. I wanted to connect them with the planking like it was at the Wasa. I took my milling machine and, as you can see, CNC is not neccessary Regards, Bernd der Gohfelder attached the following image(s):
