That's exactly it. Thanks so much!

I'm thinking of picking up the HMS snake myself. Looking at Caldercrafts online PDF instructions for some of their other ships (since Snake's instructions don't seem to be available on their website), there's a list of paints, finishes, and other materials in the manual that they recommend to finish the model.
If there's a similar list in the Snakes manual, could I ask a tiny favour for you to maybe snap a pic of the list, or transcribe it here in a post? I'd like to buy everything in one go, rather than buy the kit, read the list, and then have to make a second buy of all the supplies.

Quick Sanding Question
in Building, Framing, Planking and plating a ships hull and deck
Posted
So I just got my first kit on the mail (Caldercrafts Snake), and I had a quick question about sanding. For wooden parts that will be showing in the finished product, should they be sanded while they're still on the sprue, perhaps with a sanding block or gentle use of a palm sander, or left in their "raw" state? I'm still doing a lot of research, so I'm not even sure if these parts are sanded at all on their flat surfaces, or left raw for effect.
