Thanks Jon! A picture tells a thousand words, and I could have saved myself a lot of effort, LOL…

…had I done this, but I lack the photographic skills that you have!

I did find that the combined main deckhouse/weatherdeck unit doesn’t sit flush on the deck without a little manual pressure. This is easily rectified by using a modeling knife to scrape the insides of the deckhouse so that they don’t fit so snuggly over the alignment rails molded in relief on the main deck. But a great kit that builds up really, really quickly!

Thanks for posting these pics!
