  1. I have lots of their miniature tools and they are all great. I mounted the miniature vice on my existing work bench. I did not see the dogs. Ill have to check them out to see if they will work with the holes i already drilled. The miniature marking gauges are also back ordered to November. I Recommend them unconditionally . kevin
  2. Just made my first chain pump and having difficulty fitting it through the main mast partner hole. The book says the hole is 9” wide. I have opened the hole to 9” but this is the result. I am curious what you did. My instincts tell me to reduce the pump housing to fit the 9” hole. The second shot shows what happens when i pass it through a 10” hole. kevin
  3. Center planking section complete. Now to start working on both sides.
  4. She is looking good. I decided to ignore the scuttle covers as no one would see them and if i wanted to build them i would just scribe the lines and highlite with pencil.
  5. There is a second hand one on ebay for sale now. You might get it for the upset price.
  6. The base is 6” long by 4 1/8” wide, so if it will fit on your xy table it should work . It uses theses bolts to hold onto the table. It can be drilled to position it on the table.
  7. New stock of “ Juniper “ arrived for the outside framing. I had hoped that i would have gotten much more but the price was right so i am great full.
  8. I knew that there had to be a good explanation. Ill have it easy to do the rest of the deck planking and then to start the outside planking. Right now i need some easy stuff.
  9. Just curious if you catered for the slight increase on the outer edge of the waterway which touches the frames. I am struggling to do this on the waterway for the upper deck where the plank starts at 4” then reduces after the spirketting to three inches
  10. Phil thats a very useful site. Ill keep it for future projects.
  11. Something to distract you from your more important build of the Swan
  12. If someone ever make a quiet vacuum cleaner ill be the first to use it. Both my inside and outside shop use the small Veritas system of gates. I am afraid i use ear muff when ever i am using the system. Its a real pain in the ***. I also use a cheap remote control switch to turn the system on and off. This does work great.
