Build Log. HMS VICTORY ANATOMY by Artesania

We actually decided to spend a month in Spain and I visited the Artesania Latina factory. Very nice people. I spent four hours with them and will write a blog about them when I get back. It was very informative to the complexities of the model ship business as a whole.
Kind of missing working on the ship but don’t tell the wife.
 
Just caught up with your build. Excellent work. I'm impressed the way you nut out little issues you have found, well done!
You will see from my build log I'm somewhat behind you just finishing the first set of lights in the hold. I had zero soldering experience before this build so did struggle and walked away from the build for a while.
Hope you enjoy your holiday in Europe!
Now back to those lights.

I actually figured out about that 1/2 way through that if you press the wires I got the channel of the beam and use a small clamp to keep them
in position it’s easier to just solder them in place and they come out flatter in the channel.
