I decided, after I had made a start on the hull, to install the lighting kit. Unfortunately, the lighting kits now seem to be out of stock everywhere and so the build has come to a bit of a halt.

I was concerned that the hull might be a bit flimsy, but after having got this far, I have ended up with quite a stiff one,

No problems were encountered getting to this stage; the fit of the parts was excellent.

Having no printed instructions is a pain - but does have one advantage at least - viewing the pdf on, say, an iPad, does allow one to easily enlarge the pictures if more detail is required.

Another plus. Whereas, say, the OcCre Montanes comes with NO stand, the Santisima Trinidad comes with TWO - a temporary building stand and a more permanent display stand.
