Coming along very nice, As they say "a picture is worth a thousand words" Hope the diagrams are excellent.
I have an extremely vague recollection of building a plastic Junk kit as a very young lad. No idea who made it or if it really happened... Just remember thinking the finished kit was really cool and that the box had a lot of orange on it...

Coming along nicely! I know it's going to look a lot better real soon.
Stay safe.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
Okay, got it planked now. A couple of small gaps need a bit of filler, but I am satisfied.
Not bad for 13 bucks

Hi!
If the plans are clear you should be able to see it through to completion! I got a wood kit in the garage. It has a pile of wood and frame parts and material to build a building board too!
It's possibly a model of a Viking Longboat. Based on some of the Stem parts. My gosh the planks are even shaped, but goodness they are thin. I may soak them in Medium hot water to bend them!
Bill, thanks for that link! Tons of info. Glued to the computer for a couple of hours reading and digesting all of it. Bookmarked it for when I get a kit.
Haven't seen a "junk" build in a long time. Always wanted one for my collection but couldn't find a good one at a decent price. Saw one that looked great in a Micro Mark catalog but it was a little more than my wallet could afford at the time. This one sounds great so I'll keep watching and maybe it will be the one to get.
I recently bought a cheap wooden POB kit from GAWEGM, a Chinese junk called the Green Eyebrows. It was only 13 bucks. I figured I would take a chance at that price! It seems to be a workable kit. Main problem is the instructions are in some language I do not understand, but there are drawings that I believe will allow me to build it. Here is the first photo.
It is a laser cut kit about 8inches long, and the laser cutting is very good,
