    Looking good. Why do they use different woods? Will the model be stained or painted?

    First planking looks excellent Brian.
    Do you have C Nepean Longridge's book-The Anatomy of Nelson's Ships? Full of detail re.Victory including rigging diagrams,deck plans and all the smaller details.

            That brings back quite a few memories Brain, well done mate.
            Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.
