Good work on the doors. The windows look great. I now wish I had darkened the lines in my planks. It looks much better.good work.

Be careful when tying these ratlines that you don't make them too tight. This will result in the shrouds being pulled together. And finish up leaving the whole assembly uneven and wonky. Nice work.

Rope is the most wasted material in the model ship building game. There is not much to do but bin them. Your ratlines look great. Good work.

Very nice sails. They look great. Also your seizing is top notch. Almost time to fly the flag!

Your doing a fine job. I like the rope coils from your catheads. Running the line over a block of beeswax will get rid of all the fuzzys on your thread when it comes time to do the rigging.

I'm not too sure on the sail rings. I left those out as I didn't put sails on mine. I can not say for sure what the third hole is. I never had that either. My best guess would be something to do with lashing the sail? Good work. Keep it up.

Ah yes. This war canoe is known as a Waka. Single long hulled. Good on you for taking this up. This wood was used to build tallow casks and wine barrels much later on in history but should be good for your needs. Should be good quality coming from the forestries of the North Island.

Those deadeye things are the chainplate assembly. They came up great. Nice work on carving the Bitt heads. Good work.

Are you going to paint the hull? This may help for that cause if needed.

I had shaved the keel down to 4mm and built up to 5mm with the finale planking. 2mm was a bit to thin for my liking. Hope this helps.

If I remember correctly I had faired down the stern post when I did the fairnig for the bulk heads. I had shaved it down until both 2nd planking starboard and port could fit into the supplied hinges. Nice work.

I remember I had painted mine as the box had shown. I'm not too sure about the nails. Maby a few more of them closer together for the correct scale if you want to active that.

Hey Brian, Yes the instructions are very basic. Lacking a lot of information especially for the novice builders. Your doing great by the way. Good job.

It's looking great. Hope the medical issue is resolved and you get back to the building. Best wishes.
