I have finished the framing of the upper deck on the Victory.  Only the little quarter deck to go.  This is an important deck because some of it will be visible in the finished model unlike the other decks below which are only seen through the port openings.

Key feature on the upper deck is the ships wheel.  I enclose a closeup of the wheel.  A bit cruder than other ship wheels that I have made but given the fact that it is smaller than a dime I am happy.  What I am very happy about is that I managed to set the wheel up so that it actually controls the rudder despite that the rudder arm is 3 decks below and has been hidden for over a year.
