  1. Kevin, Yes, a new thread would provide clarity. I’m looking forward to it!
  2. I would personally choose the Model Shipways kit if I were going to build the Rattlesnake from a kit. They will replace any part that is defective or otherwise breaks for free, no questions asked. Although, I would choose the SI plans for accuracy.
  3. Making progress: Here is the galley stove: It is tiny! The plans call for the galley to be located on the upper gun deck, so I didn’t draw this piece up on the plans for Magenta.
  4. Steven, Henry Grace a Dieu is looking phenomenal. What’s the wood grain orientation on the dead eyes that are holding? At that size, that would become a factor. Also, I’ve used thin CA on small wood parts to shore them up before.
  5. Progress has been very slow because life has been very busy. The ship’s wheel needs sealed in place. The frame for the ladder aft of the blockhouse needs edge painted, sealed and glued down. The other frames need their inside trim pieces cut out and installed.
