Definitely frustrating. The bulkheads on the Mirage were not lasercut and there was some filing that I had to do to all the bulkheads, but those two that I mentioned were the only ones that were off. Maybe I should have made them fit by cutting the slots, but coincidentally exchanging them worked...

I have decided to purchase this kit for I too am a meticulous and slow builder. At 74 a little shaky and eyes not what they used to be but your initiative excites me and the Argamennon (sorry sp) intrigues me
I just tried to order but out of stock so I will learn from your
initiatives but will be behind but will communicate if you would allow

and how is your work on the Unité going? Maybe you could update your interesting building log
Sorry didn't realise it was posted in wrong spot. Spent the last hour trying to work out where build logs are supposed to go with no luck so have decided not to go ahead with one.

Hello Greg. @Uwek 's comment was not directed at you - your build log is in the perfect and correct place. The comment was aimed at @Luiz B. F. Grassi.
Please continue with your log as per usual.

Thanks , I had no idea what I was doing. Glad you cleared it up for me
That took a bit of effort , not only did all the slots in the keel and the bulkheads have to be fixed but the keel itself was twisted which took a while to figure out how to fix.
Next up will fit the lower gun deck and cannon supports.

Good morning Greg. All looking great. Funny how so many kits the keel is warp or twisted. I had same problem with my Mantua Victory.Thought it was just the kit- was very old. Now my OcCre Cazador is the same and Your Caldercraft. Anyway makes it exciting. Cheers Grant
Me too I am warped and twisted. lol. I had the same problem with the mirage, and this happened after I had put the hull together. I am starting to wonder if it's the wood glue that is doing that.
well i purchased a building slip that is supposed to keep everything square and straight. I guess we'll see in a couple of years if it works when I get to use it on the Sphinx.
Thanks Grant , exciting is one word for it lol
I have had a couple of kits with warped keels now. Haven't had much luck with this kit so far , hopefully that's the worst of it out of the way
Hello Uwek ! Thanks for the invite for the Complete Models, I'll send it. L'Únite is in progress, I'm organizing the new photos for the Forum.
