"Mayflower" Yuanqing models

Since this is the lower deck, it is not visible on the model. And to support the trim strips around the port, you can do it like I showed below. Thank you!!!
 
The Chinese promised to send the electronic drawings on Monday. I'll hold off on assembly for now. The existing drawings are simply awful. It's impossible to measure a single distance (poor print quality). I made blank gun ports for one side. I hope I managed to measure them correctly. I won't install them. I'll wait for the electronic drawings.

I received the drawings from the Chinese. It turns out there was one drawing missing from the set. A very important one. Therefore, the deck planking will have to be redone. It's as shown in the instructions (item 44) and as it should be. They pointed this out to me yesterday. And, as it turns out, the Chinese copied the drawings from a Polish model from 1976.
