Mine had chain in the set but honestly I don't think it's usable as the links are twisted and look horrible. I just used other chain. The set is great though.
I need to order another one for my next build of Warspite. I didnt use the deck on my last build. To my eye wooden decks look over scaled and I had a dreadful experience with using one (not from Pontos) on my Graf Spee. The wood lifted and bubbled over the place and became worse over time. I've since scrapped her and built a new ship. Fortunately I was able to remove most of the fittings and etch and use them on the new build.

David,
Chain also can be replaced at any time.
If you need for another try, please let me know.
As for the strength of wooden deck adhesive.
Too strong, users cannot re-fit because wood sheet is scattered.
Too weak, as you mentioned wooden deck are peeled off too easily.
So we tuned the strength of Adhesive very seriously with many tests.
And finally we find the most effective strength point.
And more, ours can be applied with using water spraying for easier fitting on the plastick surface.
You can use also warm blowing driers(as hair drier) for drying remained water.
After dried fully, the deck willbe attached steadl\ily.
But even though we find the best point in strength. with high temperature and humidity condition, some area may be peeled off, so in this case, you can applying with instant glue on these area for stronger attaching.
Thank you
Kim
