  24. Hello friends, Thank you all for the compliments and the likes. And a warm welcome to Ulises, Denis, Piet, Richard and Sean, It is high time for an update, however small. Glued the lining onto the interior of the frames. Made an offset in the lining in the areas coinciding with the support for the crossbeams. Cut the crossbeams to size. Planked the forecastle deck. In contrast to the waist deck, I decided to simulate caulking. For this I used India ink fro Faber-Castell (PITT artist pen, black 199 ***). It is a bit getting used to, because the planks are so thin. But it looks better with than without the caulking. Dry fitted the forecastle, the sections of the hold deck, the sections of the quarter deck and the crossbeams. So far, so good. To be continued.......... Thank you for watching, Regards, Anja
