Hi all, I purchased this kit as a practice model and have now completed the first two stages of the build. I have followed the instructions but have chosen to stain the exposed parts of the ribs as I did not like the exposed ply, have a look and see what you think please, Ger

Hi all, clamped the decks in place, the clamps are a bit heavy but could not find plastic ones with enough depth in my local shops. Ger
