Thanks, everyone. I plan on seeing this through to the end. I've built several model ships already but they're sub-standard because I still lack some of the more critical skills, which I'm hoping to learn on this project. I don't need to be a great model ship builder, but I'll do what's necessary to become a good one.

I bought a used kit on Mamoli Constitution kit on eBay a few years ago. I just blew the dust off of it and got started... and I was immediately stopped. I don't know exactly how many plan sheets I'm missing, but I am at least missing the sheet for table G. I'm wondering if anyone out there would who has completed the model would be willing to sell me the plan sheets? I'm dead in the water without them, so any help out there would be fantastic...
Thanks!

I got to the point of building the gun ports and realized I'd have to start over from scratch; too many early mistakes. So, I threw it out and started over (after scavenging the keel). I'm now almost as far along on the second build as I was with the first attempt. I built a sanding jig and, by cracky, I didn't break a single bulkhead when sanding.
