Every thing looking spot on Kieth. Yep my CAF kit also has those gratings and they are quite ridiculous to try and construct. They also are impossible to get the char off so come out dirty.

A quick question - How does your kit (which is impressively accurate) show how the cathead tails finish? Are they bolted to the underside of the deck beams?

FWIW on the gratings, i found it quite helpful to get them secured using my small shop vise.
Once located properly you can press them in with fair force using the vise, nothing really twists or snaps, only ones I needed to alter/repair were on the very edges.
