This is an great kit for the first time wooden ship modeler.  There are some excellent build logs of this kit that you can reference for your build.  I look forward to following your progress.

Well I'm not off to a great start.  I've been sick for the past few days and didn't want to work on the boat until I felt better. 

 

So far I have managed to bust 2 of the frames, they are so fragile.  I got some new wood and have been trying to learn how to cut new pieces out of the wood and shaping it so down the road it will be easier.  I managed to break the stern holder in half.... ooops....  I got a new piece of wood ow wood, traced and cut out a new piece and fixed that.  At about the time I fixed that, the hull section got knocked and the stern piece snapped off.. uuurrgghhh I want to scream

 

Once I get things squared away I'll take some pics....

 

Mark.
