ajromano Posted January 19, 2020 Author #4 Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) The red and green planking is dyed veneer from local woodworking store. It is actually too soft and I do not plan on using it again for major work. Edited January 19, 2020 by ajromano Tony Savannah, Georgia Multi hobby nut.
ajromano Posted January 19, 2020 Author #5 Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) The stern detail is not very good! This is photo of the box kit came in. Seems like a part from some other ship or gaffe! Edited January 19, 2020 by ajromano Tony Savannah, Georgia Multi hobby nut.

Monarch Posted April 2, 2020 #7 Posted April 2, 2020 Hi Tony I am also building the Portsmouth but struggling with the instructions after completing the first planking. Can you help me please as I am looking to start the second planking and it talks about starting below the first upper lath but only as far as the poop. The drawings are not any use or i am just reading them wrong. Also I note you cut out the gunports before second planking yet no mention yet in instructions. Any held and guidance will be greatly appreciated. Regards Glyn Current build - HM Mortar Convulsion (Caldercraft) - Suspended pending rigging experience HMS Sharke (Sergal)On the shelf: HMAV Bounty (Caldercraft), Portsmouth (Mamoli) & HMS Victory (Caldercraft)
