Hello Dan.

Great details and workmanship on the gun ports and overall. I was impressed by the details of your deck. May I ask which type of wood you used for the planking of the deck?

Thank you!

I used the materials supplied in the kit. They are listed as lime tree, so I guess that it’s limewood!

I used a product called finishing oil from the manufacturer Liberon, and this brought out a nice level of detail and glow in the wood.

This really is coming along well. Let's hope we see another update soon. Because I have recently acquired this same kit, I will hop on board and follow along. One thing that does concern me is the holes for your masts, Gaffrig. As far as I know, they have a 15 degree lean stern wards. It will be interesting to see how you get that lean now that the decks are complete sir.
