You referred to some pictures by number but unfortunately the picture numbers aren't visible. As it happens, that wasn't a problem but if you want to put numbers against them, preview your post after you've attached the pictures. After you've previewed it, the code will be added to your post and you can add the numbers (or any other text you want) before finally submitting it.
It's coming along nicely. You'll have more guns in that section than some models of a whole ship! | ||

I started drawing the keel and frames and Jeff is currently working on the spar deck framing and locating equipment. We are doing the drawings as needed and don’t have an overall drawing started yet. LOL | ||

I am not very good at working with pictures but will try to do better. The model will only have 15 guns shown on the starboard side and the gunports will be shown closed on the port side. The model itself will be larger at a scale of 1:64 than the bomb vessel cross section at 1:24 scale. | ||

In that case I'm afraid we'll just have to mark you down! Only 9 out of 10 this time.
(I can edit the posts and add the numbers if you want.) | ||

Until my CAT(OOOPS CORRECTION MY WIVES CAT DESTROYED IT). Oh well I will be getting back to that one in the winter time and start over and finish off......But again she looks real good Mike.... *****GUESS WHAT THIS IS MY 1000 POST.....I THINK I TALK WAY TOOOO MUCH!!!....

Maybe if you notched the deck clamps and installed them with the frames before adding the gunports it could be done but adding the spacers is a lot easier. Mike | ||
