Question, is it better to do the chamfers on the frame parts when I am sanding off the soot or wait until I am planking ?

Chamfering should be done on each part in the areas that require chamfering and of course before the parts are installed on the ship. This way it is much more convenient and the result will be much neater.
 
I dare to suggest that the components used in the construction of for example the frames and keel (including stem and stern features) of both the original and the model will be similar and the presence of the char will enhance the appearance of the joints.

Hi, What are the quantities and colors of the stain that you sell. ? Would a quantity of two increase the shipping cost ?

The char will impede the adhesion of the glue.

please can you let me know the identity of any parts that depend only on glue applied to the charred edges to hold them in place.
IMHO there won't be many (or any?), and as Pavel has explained, it is the glue applied to the faces of components that needs to adhere.
BTW I'm expecting my kit to arrive any day now, thus explaining my interest.
 
I made a detailed video on what and where to grind when assembling the keel. It shows everything very well and there is no need to describe it in words. Just look on my channel Video № 2 on ‘Oseberg’, believe me I do not do anything accidentally and in the assembly process I use only repeatedly worked out solutions and techniques ...
