Wow Paul (@dockattner), You're fast ! You looked at the post before I had a chance to add the pictures.

In my construction of the first deck section, I'm combining steps 45 and 46.
However, I did notice that in step 46, they list the part numbers backwards.
The E2-13 knee should be closest to the bow and the E2-16 knee should be on the end away from the bow.
I'm sure most people would figure it out since they are not the same sizes and would not fit over the plans properly of not installed in the correct place.
I guess a little of my OCD is being exposed. LOL

Hi Jeff. I’m glad you are feeling better. Your work on your ship looks great!

Thanks for checking in on me. I hurt my right shoulder (of course I'm right handed) a little while back and it has hindered my ability/desire to work on the ship for a bit, but I am back at it. I've got the steps, crutches and breast hook installed and starting to work on some of the lower deck framing now.

Nice to see that you have started with the 1st deck, Jeff. Hopefully, the inability to function will heal quickly.
Regards, Peter

Thanks Peter. It's doing pretty well not, but now I also have all the stuff around the house I need to catch up on too.

Thanks Bill !

In step 47, it lists the part numbers for what I believe are the Riding Bitt uprights to be C-3. However, I believe it is actually C1-7.

Ok, I have glued all the beams and carlings in place on this deck.
I've not been able to find in the instructions what to use for the ledges. However, looking at the plans they appear to be 2mm width. I found on parts sheets there is some 2x2 mm cut, so that will be what I use for the ledges.

Looking good Jeff! I know what it's like to search for parts seemingly not mentioned in the plans.

Yes that is my opinion also

Hi Jeff, looking great. I hope that shoulder is becoming less bothersome.

Thanks, the shoulder is doing very well now.

Shoulders can be bothersome so I’m glad you’re feeling better. Great looking work.
