MDF - loads of it! If you expand the picture you should be able to make out some of the hull shapes - note the template second from right on the top row. Five masts! The sweet at the bottom was also included in the box so many thanks to Diane for that methinks!
My order for industrial quantities of bespoke laser cut MDF courtesy of Warbases has arrived! This means that the great 1880 ironclad build can at last begin!
One small problem though. The hatch and ladder leading into the man cave have decided to part company - at least one of the spring mounted brackets has. We have a chap coming around to take a look at it later today so hopefully it will be rectified soon.
In the meantime though, the first chapters of the book have been passed over to the Editor-in- Chief for his perusal so everything is starting to move along.

Hi Bob,

Hi Steve J,
The plan is to get the whole completed before the big reveal - this will maintain the shock and awe factor!
All the best,
