Good evening.
With the folding of the frames for the dock, it is now time to assemble.
First, we have to assemble the operations deck for the dock. This is mainly a type of box fold with angular sides.
Upon test fitting, found that this piece need a reinforcing superstructure. With that done it was glued together.

The completed assembly was then attached to the top inside of the main frame and left to dry.

Operations deck installed on to main frame.
