Hi all,
been a while since i posted.
I have held off making the model superstructure until i had all parts complete, and i am storing them all numbered and in boxes.
I am at issue 77 and i have found that the brass fret for making the bridge gantry is missing.
I have the deck parts that came with that issue but have lost the brass parts.
Does anyone know where i may be able to source another brass sheet.
Does hatchette offer spares at all.
Or would has anyone given up and still has the parts etc.
This is really annoying as i can't think how i lost the sheet as i have been very careful and ensured all parts were stored safely, especially as i still have the other parts from that issue.
Hope someone can help.
Kind regards
Rick

Which bit is it again? Not quite sure what you mean? Which step in issue 77?

You should be able to order a back issue from customer services. Alternatively, have a look on Fleabay

Give hachette/Jacklin a ring, they will send the missing part or issue out to you. Sorry I've not got the number to hand, but it'll be inside one of your front covers.
Edit: got the number, 0844 412 2514.

I e-mailed hatchette, i got a reply, but they need my subscription number and i can't for the life of me remember it, and i don't think i have any sheets from the deliveries with it on left. They did say they could order one, but they are out of stock atm, which makes me think i could be in for a long wait. The parts are for the bridge wings, they sit just behind the angled section of the foresuperstructure, they stick out port and Starboard. basically 2 Gantry's that lookouts can go to. This is a pic taken from markus' build thread. Right side of the pic, gantrys just before the first yellow raft on the bridge. These are the parts from the issue, its the brass i am missing:

Hi pH.
That would be great if you could.
If you want pennies for it, let me know.
Do you want me to PM you with details for address etc.
I am also in Scotland so hopefully shouldn't be too expensivo.
I can easily pay you for postage.
Cheers
Rick
