excelent stuff mate...you have done in a number of weeks what it has taken me over a year to achieve ! I have no doubt at all that yours will be completed and painted / running before i even get paint back on my hull !!! is she going to be a 5th div carrier ?
if i may offer some very humble advice to a pro......if you are using a gas mig i would turn your reg up or clean the nozzle and feed... only reason i say is the weld on the bulkhead looks like it may need ground out and re done. and folks iam not nitt picking ! the project is fantastic !!!! I am coming to Suffolk next friday so will be seeing you soon dude

Hi Richie, i welded the bulkhead flat and what you can see is the underside where i was GAP filling. i have to take the bulkhead off and finish the repairs, clean up and drill all the holes. i had to put the top section to get a refference point .
Bring your cover alls ! If the weather is any good we will play with some toys.
