In steps 14C & D, 14C gives you the part numbers. But in 14D where it tells you to taper the deadwood again, it shows G1-11 in place as well. even though it was not a part listed in 14C. i went ahead and installed it as I was doing C.
Hi Jeff,
I am enjoying your work very much and I also enjoy the interaction between you and the members of the group.

So, here is a picture of the 3 sub assemblies we have been working on.
The next picture you see from me of these parts, they will be one piece and shortly after that be in the assembly cradle.

Thanks Keef.
Nowhere in the instructions does it mention the installation of parts E1-1 and E1-2. These go on top of the keel and have the slots for the frames. There is 2 of each of the parts, so I would imagine these should be installed 2 thick into their respective locations. Also, I believe these should be installed right before the stern deadwood and the photo etch parts are installed.
@Modelship Dockyard Can you verify this please as well as answer the question that was posted on Alex R's build about fitting the stern post into the building cradle?
Thanks

Hi Corsair, you shall glue two E1-1 and two E1-2 together, then glue them onto the keel, and then install the stern. This was indeed missed on the instructions, I will add them on and update it. I will answer the questions of Alex in his post.

Hi Keith and Jeff. The way MD has designed the deadwood at the aft and fore cant frames is wonderful. I’m feeling a tad jealous of you guys
. Nah not really , I’m building the “vintage” version. Agreed Jeff is owning this. Cheers Grant
