SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Place the railings into position up

against the port quarter gallery to check

that their shape is correct.

You can use a half-round file to bend

the railings to shape. Bend them only

a little at a time to avoid breaking them

with too much bending.

you did for those on the other side of

the quarter gallery: the central section

with dark brown paint and the rest with

gold paint, as shown.

glue it along the bottom of the lowest

window frames, as shown in the photo.

hull, placing two pieces of 1 x 4mm

wooden strip at the top and bottom of

the starboard quarter gallery.
