Stage 5: Starting the anchors with the capstans and anchor chains

As for stage 4, we begin by fixing another connector to the hull section.

Then we add some parts to the upper deck.

I test-fitted the two anchor chain openings and two chain guards before gluing them to the upper deck.

Then to the capstans.

Rather than apply glue to the wheel (as instructed) I applied glue to hole of the shaft before fitting the wheel peg into the shaft. Then turned the shaft 180° and firmly pushed the green drum and the support down the shaft as far as they could go. The process was repeated for the red capstan.
