Hello,
long, long ago, but to my excuse I must say, it does not go faster. I make every plank one by one, it must bend, let dry and then glue. This takes a while. Here are some pictures. The underwater hull is almost finished. The windows at the rear are also in it. The next images are then, if that's underwater hull finished.
Regards kay

Excellent hull work; you have mentioned technique by Robert Volk / Germany. Would you be able to steer me in direction where i can get more info about that technique of hull building? A link to his post (if exists)? Appreciated..

The cannon is designed as a pattern and was turned free hand. The wood is only clamped in a drill. The wood at the stern is pear. I had forgotten to show that I had already cut the gunports. Work was also done at the stern. The "Hennegat" was again made and the gunports were moved still somewhat direction sternpost.
Some of the gunports on the cow bridge are still missing, as the position is not yet clear.

You make that canon your self with the help of a lathe?
And what kind of wood are you using for the frames at the stern?
It looks fabulous!!!

This is roughly the state of the building. I then made the windows at the stern, where a friend said they looked horrible. So I again made it new. And further I have built a 18 pound cannon, which is to serve as a model for pouring.
@zoly, yes, Robert Volk write a book, only in german

And it went on with grind, grind and grind again. Now the beam of the stern were prepared and inserted into the whole structure. Next, the keel, the stem, and the sternpost were made and glued. In these the rabbet was incorporated.

And it goes on. The outer edge of the frames has been blackened to have a reference point when grinding. Now the hull was filled with plywood, according to the method of Robert Volk / germany. The method yields a very solid hull.
@Elijah: With the jigsaw, handwork !
@sjors : Yes, the Black Forest is a very nice area, I like to live here!
@all: Thanks for your comments !

Hello Kay,
Anja dragged me by my ear to this ship yard.....
We are both from Rotterdam and we seen the Eendracht many times.
Only not the one that you are building but the newest version :-)
So I will take a seat in the next row and will enjoy.
Not only your work but also the environment. Das Schwarzwald!

Very nice! How did you cut out those bulkheads without cutting the sides?
