USS Constitution by Model Shipways. - First Build Log

Interesting approach vs say, Mustafa's (Mtbediz1) inside/out concept. Might it have been easier to deal with lower sections first? I don't know that I could work comfortably with so much loose line hanging from the masts.
I had bought a bunch of really good rope after getting frustrated with what came in the kit. The lines fall down nicely and they were easier to many than I thought. I was worried they would tangle and I would create a mess, but it seemed to have worked out pretty well so far.
