Very slow progress with the holidays coming up. I am getting to the point of assembling the upper deck and mounting it all and realized there was a natural bow to my deck and of course I planked the top making it convex where as it should have been concave to glue onto the ship better. It Is explained better in the photos. The room walls will also fit much better as well. 
 

so today I spent most of my day off doing laundry, wrapping presents, and planking the other side of the top deck.

Currently working on the mezzanine staircase and railings, the directions at this part definitely leave a lot to be desired and without pictures of each step it would be quite difficult, that’s for sure

When assembling the wheelhouse apparently I put the back wall on backwards and now the door is on the wrong side. The directions say to make the platform 48mm but to extend it across the entire back I ended up making it 70mm
