I have a question general in nature, although I will be applying it to my present ship build, namely, Caldercraft's Mary Rose. Trying to get the 5mm thick lower deck where it belongs is daunting to say the least--I'm afraid I'll break the frames. What I'm thinking of doing is to cut it in half length-wise, thus making it easier to install. My concern is--will this hurt the overall strength of the framing? Any guidance in this area would be greatly appreciated.
