New kit HMS Enterprise 1774 1:160 Midship Cross Section by Unicorn Models

Are the frames glued into the jig?

Just glued to the top plate of the jig and are cut out later after the keel and spacers are installed.

@Unicorn models Thanks for such great kits. I’ve received both the stern and mid section in the mail. Excited to get them started. I would like to know if you have any plans on creating the bow section. It would look amazing to display all three sections together. My apologies if this has been answered already.

Cheers!!

Thank you for asking — and absolutely, the Enterprise bow section kit will definitely be launched, so no need to worry. This one is being handled by my colleague, and we expect to start development at the end of the year, really appreciate your interest and patience!

With built-in cabins the B1G & B1I beam get in the way. Should it be shortened, or what's the plan there?

Dirk, Following your question on B1G as well. What the heck! Magic Mike

I guess you mean whether you need to sand down the parts of the beams protrude the bottom of gun deck B? Don’t worry about that. You can just place deck B on the cabin, and then, following the manual, use a jig to accurately locate the gun deck and then glue it to the inner hull. It's only at this point that you need to think about whether to adjust the bottom of the deck. Usually, it doesn’t need to be sanded.

Thanks @Unicorn models much appreciated, now I see the mistake I were to made ... I forgot the B1F Beams, so everything is the same height. Thanks for helping to see my mistake

Edit: RTFM :-D
