Roger good evening in the link it shows the covered over well deck, as part of the walkthrough experience of the Britannic, it however does not show any hatches or trunks, https://www.facebook.com/messenger_media/?thread_id=100002107592434&attachment_id=799897851150443&message_id=mid.%24cAAAAAHArC6CJRTLo72DE-0-c14sj the photo here however does show the hatches on the deck above -
there is notning at all in that area to suggest the hataches are there, here is a tour guide of the after well deck https://www.facebook.com/messenger_media/?thread_id=100002107592434&attachment_id=799897851150443&message_id=mid.%24cAAAAAHArC6CJRTLo72DE-0-c14sj

good afternoon everyone thank you for comments and like day 9 after well deck Britannic had lots of changes made to her, as a result of the titanic loss,, the after well deck was one of them it was decided that 3rd class passengers needed somewhere to smoke and protected from the elements to achieve this they removed the hatched to the after cargo holds (but at present i dont know where to)

i will most likely return the Bosch, it has not met my expectations, i never expected any play in the head, made worse by the loose hex shank mini chuck in the attachment holder,

good afternoon, im not sure i will mess to much with the windows, but im not 100 sure what is involved, i will enclose the after well deck, and purchase the 5 crane sets from Shapeways, i may even splash out for the stern plate set, or attempt my own, other than that i could spend at least £1000 on upgrade sets which in all honesty will never been seen, the world needs vessels that are 100% correct, i personally dont know anyone who will ever see this build when complete (aprt from the wife) oh and me boi, but his social media friends are the same as mine here he is telling me what to say to @chris watton

good evening everyone than you for comments and likes day 5 port side port holes done, another couple hudred left to do, trying to sort internal hull lighting really pleased with myself completing the 0.6mm port holes, then i went and sanded the hull internally to get rid of the swarf, and it filled a lot of them in again, oh hum internal of the hull has been primed in a Halfords yellow primer, made a frame for the internal leds attached to the bulkhead frames, but once the decks either end are in place i wont be able to remove it, so i may adapt it to 3 sections and actually secure the fwd and after sections with a removable midships sections, another 2 strips at least are required as well the light gap between the top superstructure and the hull is caused by a few locating lugs, the internal bulkheads which are not part of the kit cause it to sit to high, not any more as i cut them off hull primed wooden frame attached to the internal bulkheads, allows it to be removeable for now this light gap has now been eliminated, locating lugs were being hampered by the internal bulkheads this with just two strips, another two planned

dam, so they really are 3d printers and not coffee machines, i thought you were taking me on as unpaid labour to keep the floor clean, I need plenty of coffee for that

good evening everyone thank you for comments and likes Day 4 Portholes, clearing raised detal prior to photoetch thought the portholes would have been finished by now, but i have now run oput of .7mm drill bits spent yesterday clearing the raised detail on all deck parts and filling in where stated in the KAMK1 instructions this evening just place the hull parts on top to see the effect hull work will not leap forward as my books of reference are in the post, with a mail strike new drill much easier than what i was using
