Nice work Greg, im picking up tips for when I reach your stage 😃 the window sections were easier to shape without heating because of the direction of the grain, I was surprised to see the grain running diagonally on the centre pieces though.

[@Jay-vg2wh]

Grant, as always you are 100% correct it seams to me that no two kits are the same especially when it comes to wood grain of various parts as you know each piece is unique

[@GregWilson635]

Thanks Grant. I didn't actually notice the grain direction. But that explains it :)

very nice video as always, but you know what's funny. I was watching your video and I was 100% certain that you putting those pieces inside out. Because how I did it, was the glass provided I cut out every single individual window into that small gap [ 3 windows per piece and put it like that. Yep and that took me forever. Anyways, I went back to the book and yours is correct mine is inside out but not big deal. But learnt something new for when I start second HMS victory. I always write these kind of things in my notes of improvements

[@GregWilson635]

Thanks mate. I was stressing over the correct orientation. The photo in the manual looks like the indented side faces out but to be sure I checked a few build logs. I'm bound to get something else wrong though lol 😆

[@PUNISHERMARKO]

@@GregWilson635 yeah you are correct, manual does show that side to be outside. I made mistake and assumed that that small cut out was for the glass piece. Lesson learnt never assume 😀

Nice build Greg, Really an individual thing as to using CA or PVA, but like you, when I cant clamp, i favour using CA. My shed is completed today so fitting out will follow, and hopefully a vlog

[@GregWilson635]

Thanks Bill. A lot more people these days are only using CA glue but i'm used to using wood glue when i can. Will look forward to seeing your shed. I would like to do the same thing one day. :)

@@GregWilson635 I am taking it one step at a time as this is the first time on cam. Hopefully I am posting what people are interested in. I have a ton of viewers but I don't know if they like them or not as not many or responding back.

@genojoe3176 From my point of view, what you are doing is great. Giving a good insight into building that ship, and it certainly is a fine looking ship. I'd say keep doing what you are doing mate 👍
