JSGerson Posted April 1 Author #1111 Posted April 1 The second canopy frame is completed in one month, half the time it took me for the first one. This is one of the pairs of hatchways at the ship’s wheel. The other one is closed and therefore has no frame. The last two are on the main hatchway. They are a bit smaller and have only seven stanchions each.

I might steal that idea from you Edited April 2 by mtbediz GGibson 1 Mustafa Current Build, USS Constitution 1:76 Scratch https://modelshipworld.com/topic/34741-uss-constitution-by-mtbediz-176/#comment-991858 Finished, HM Cutter Alert 1777.
