Matt_the_dude Posted March 31, 2019 #1 Posted March 31, 2019 Welcome to my first build ever, The Schooner Vega. Here’s the packaging (slightly started, didn’t know about this forum). Laser cut plywood, I guess this is standard. All small fidly stuff that I fear. Time to start! Everything up to step #7 is complete. I’m struggling hard to understand how to plank, improve technique, where to fasten planks and all. Upcoming plans. I hope y’all stay to watch this project hopefully become finished. -Matt etubino, Cabbie, Bobby and 5 others 8

Cabbie Posted March 31, 2019 #3 Posted March 31, 2019 Hi Matt, just remember to take it easy, don't rush. Have a good read through this forum specially the 2 pinned items at the top. https://modelshipworld.com/forum/14-building-framing-planking-and-plating-a-ships-hull-and-deck/ Cheers Chris Matt_the_dude 1 HM Cutter Mermaid 1817 HMB Endeavour 1768 by Cabbie - Artesania Latina - 1:60 - Kit Fiddle Every action has a consequence
CaptainSteve Posted April 1, 2019 #4 Posted April 1, 2019 I'm also pulling up a barrel, Matt. Thought I'd watch and see how you go with that fairing.
