Good Evening.
Tonight installed the 3rd mast.
All 3 are now installed. these were probably the hardest tubes to roll in this whole build. Their small diameter and that they are tapered made them that much harder to assemble.







Still have to figure out the rigging, but that will come near the end.
For now have to start on all the Auxiliary Craft.



This is where I am at tonight.
Thank you for following.
Questions and comments welcome.

Hi Patrick.
The first one, which this is a pic of, has some errors, but the 2nd one I'm working on is coming out better. Learning curve. ;D

Good Evening.
After a good weekend of slaving over little Aux. Craft, last night finished the last of the 12 boats.
Each one is like a little build in itself.



With these done, it was move on to installing all their mounting points. Then mounting the craft in all their respective positions.
So this is where I am at tonight.











I have a couple of davits to assemble and then can start the Arado.

Thank you for following.
