Watching paint drying... 😁
-
Applied stained wood filler and golden oak stain. Prepared for the lower Hull painting While the primer is drying, I started to work on the rudder.
-
Just finished the second planking on the top part of the Hull. It was probably my least favorite part of the build so far. I don't know what it was about but I just didn't like to do it and was looking forward to be done with it. I drilled all the holes to simulate the tree nails. I will be traveling for the next 2 weeks sono further progress would be expected.

Taking a break tonight. Here is what I completed last night. - Finished fixing the waterways - Prepared all the stanchions with a 10 degree angle I used a spacer to properly align them. Here is the final result of my effort.

Yesterday activities. Resulted to this... Transom construction. All most done... Treenailing and Wood filler. It still need to attach the knees. I will wait to use the wood stain until everything is planked on the upper Hull. Worked on bow section. Starting the long process of cutting and attaching the stanchions. I used a spacer to ensure uniformity.

Thank you Richie. I think you are right. It may might be a bit too o small. It is flushed to the edge of the hole tho... 🤔 I guess a bit of frustration later in the build 😂

Quick update... Sanding the Hull. Painting the inside of the gun port. Worked on the hatches. Made a mistake with the orientation of the grating. 😡😤 Good news is that it should be covered by the life boat 😓 Love my new tool. It help me make quick way of cutting especially with the use of a homemade crosscut sheld.
