  1. I don't know about the Caldercraft version of the model, but I purchased the VM version and I am extremely happy with the quality of the kit, the very clear and detailed instructions and how beautiful the model is turning out. It is a fantastic kit for the less experienced model builder (like me) and gives you lots of confidence to continue to develop your skills in building wooden model ships.
  2. Hi Stuka, I had the same questions about where specifically to apply the glue to the bulwarks in building my Sherbourne. Craig has correctly stated how to approach it. Good work so far, and I will be following to see how you progress.
  3. Thanks James for that great clarification. I was asking the same question about gluing the bulwarks on my Sherbourne kit, and your response was exactly what I was needing to hear.
  4. Thank you for the info on this. I was thinking that trying to remove the upper part of the bulkheads after gluing them would really cause issues with the inner side of the bulwark when I go to install the finished pieces over top. Paddy
  5. Hello Robert, I just received my kit of the Sherbourne and am following along with your build. This is a fantastic kit! You are doing a great job and I am learning quite a bit. I have a question for you regarding gluing on the first layer plywood bulwarks. When you glued them on, did you also apply glue to the upper part of the bulkhead frames that sit above the deck or did you just apply glue along the lower edges of the bulwark? I know that in the coming steps, I have to remove the upper parts of the bulkheads (above the deck) and am thinking if the bulwark is glued to them, then it is going to be very difficult to remove cleanly so that I can apply the inner finished bulwark pieces. Appreciate your insight on this as I don't want to make a mistake on attaching the bulwarks that might create other issues. Paddy
