Hello again 
I have now almost finished all the deck details, Just the ancors remain now pretty much and some additional black coatings., Fitting the swivel guns went very smooth and without trouble. However trouble began today when I was fixing the holes on the ancors.  Not only did my ancor break during the assembly so I had to reglue the resin parts together again which went fine. But now as I was fixing the holes for the ring on top of the ancor one of the top parts just broke apart and is impossible to reglue. feeling a bit demorilised I took one of the spare brass keyholes on and modified it and after glued it on. acting as a holder for the ring so fingers crossed I can save this. 

Another less fun thing to say.
Some mild frustrations are growing on my side with the instructions,  about the foregratings that are supposed to be glued on with a thread through it. I again followed the instructions and a couple of pages before It says that all deck fittings are now to be added and glued I presume. Unless I severly misunderstood the instructions though when I read it I thought all of the deck fitting where supposed to be glued on and added when it said I should add them. Cause the pictures even show several before photos with all the fittings attached including this part that I have troubles with now.  This is not the first time an annoying error happends even though I follow the instructions as told,  Before it was with the pump dowel material which in the instructions wrongly state that 25mm of dowel is to be used per pump but in reality its only 15mm.  Which means if you followed the instructions one mast is going to be 2cm short. 

I fully understand that these kits are developed by Chris alone I assume the instructions are written by Chris and somebody that helps him. But I would hope these instruction errors can be corrected for the future so rookies like me dont have to make these errors by just following the instructions cause it just feels very uneasy as if I cant trust the instructions unless I have looked through the future pages and all the plans to constantly double check whats written. 

I overrall love this kit and would still recommend it for a complete beginner like me but I hope the instructions can have a second look at them sometime and some errors corrected. And I mean nothing to try and put anybody or the model in a bad light im just trying to let some steam off with my frustrations as of now.  I will probably take  a break for today atleast on the build but I will finish it just need a little positive energy first 👍
