Hello everybody.
A few days ago I finally started building my model.
I ordered the Vanguard Amati-Victory kit from my trusted dealer and after two weeks it arrived. Initially I found the kit very expensive but now, that I have seen the contents of the box, I think it is right. The wooden boards are very well cut and the details are very accurate. I hope not to find any surprises during the construction but so far I am very satisfied. I will strive for a good job to come. In my profession I have learned to be mythic and precise and with this hobby I have found a way to satisfy my needs.
First I numbered all the pieces before detaching them from the boards as recommended in the instructions. I mounted the keel and ordered them dry (without glue) to see if everything was in order then I glued with the vinyl glue. The first bridge fitted perfectly and held the frames perfectly in place. I waited a day for the glue to dry well then I inserted the two strips for the false guns. To pass them through the special slots I had to put them in warm water for half an hour. When they dried I stuck with vinyl glue.
