I’m new to the site and ship building. This is my father’s ship, that he started some time ago. He got sidetracked then developed Alzheimer’s. I thought it would be nice to finish the product. I have several questions for anyone who can help. My dad stopped because he said he made an error. He never said what it was, but he was a perfectionist with OCD.
I have read several build logs of the Wasa and I know this kit has flaws. I am not looking to build it to historic record, just the way the kit came. I’m trying to understand a few things I have noticed in other builds. The hand rails and the canon holes-are the supports for the rails one piece of wood that also frame the cannon holes? On the bow of the ship, is there suppose to be support for the curved bow? See the pics.
Thanks for any feed back you may have.
I also am in need of some of the plans as there are a few pages missing in his set.
