So I have went all out and ordered this collection along with the 31 plansets.
I happened to come across an eglish version of a couple of the books from somewhere long ago that I found in my books. I amd looking at volume 2 and though there is ao much detail info in it I can be assured I will be happy enough to have spent the money for the collection. However book 2 is more about the internal stuff and the various gidgets and gadgets for the cooks bosuns midshipmen etc.
So I will have to search my stuff see if I have any more of the books as for sure volume 2 is useless for the external framing of the ship, I can only hope that and timber dimensions are in a different volume.
I figure why not start a thread on this so anyone that has the set can help with what volume may have what to actually build the ship and so those thinking of getting the collection can ask questions
