Huckins 78' (PT 95) laser cut deck kit.
This is the first cut of the Huckins laser cut deck kit November 2024.
I am trying jigsaw joints on the subdeck for the first time, on this particular model, as they work well on the machine gun turrets on all of my models and because the Huckins Deck is straight (in the longitudonal plane anyway!). This means the entire subdeck can be pieced and glued together on a flat surface (maybe on some polythene sheet) and then attached to the hull frame. I also decided on this approach because of the very long deck hatch and the subdeck covering having to be in two pieces and I want it to be strong, so a jigsaw join in the middle makes sense. Then I thought well, why not apply that to the entire subdeck? The top deck however has just straight joins as jigsaw joins would ruin the look.
