Frame & Bulkhead (nearly) done (9757)

Deviated from builiding instructions. Bow and sterncastle bulkheads to be fitted still. Want to put filler blocks in and shape whilst off the model.

The keel warped after joining two (very) flat pieces. Must have happened during the clamping of the strengthening pieces. I noticed this only when I started fitting the false decks. The aft frame/bulkhead was OK so I completed that part first.

I only then built the keel frame and decided to do it almost full length to be able to straighten the frame. Front false decks lines up. Small mismmatch in foremast position hole through false deck into frame. Nothing major (he says with confidence :) )
