1. My memory is failing me, and I forgot if I've uploaded these pictures before. I checked the records but didn't see them, so I'll post them now. Apologies for any repetitions.
2. The upper deck beams are complete. Some of the beam supports conflict with the gun ports, so they've been replaced with angled supports. The beams are misaligned with the pump columns, so they've been replaced with small longitudinal beams. The steering wheel has become difficult to rotate after winding, so I guess it will just have to be fixed.
3. The finished capstan is rotatable. The binnacle's location conflicts slightly with the deck grille's mounting location, so I'll just follow the kit instructions.
4. Installing the side rails and opening the top deck gun emplacements.
