  1. Thanks guys. lots to digest here. leaning towards the Stanley clamp/vise as we’re still working on the hull. any other suggestions are still appreciated. thanks again
  2. Is there a more affordable alternative to the Keel Klamper? Looking to get something (make?) that'll hold the ship in place while working on it. Thank you
  3. I'm soaking a plank so as to bend it easier. How long should I let it soak? If I'm going to attach it tonight (8pm) how soon before should I take it out of water?
  4. Where does everyone store there build when they're not working on it? We don't have the luxury of leaving the ship build and it's items just sitting out in the open so need some ideas on storing it all in one place. Any suggestions would be cool. Thanks
  5. Good advice. A couple follow up questions: 1-What is this tool used for anyway? Or is it just a failed idea for a tool? 2-My plank nails are .5mm in diameter. What diameter drill bit and drill would you recommend? Thanks
  6. Probably a dumb question but how do you use this tool? http://shop.excelblades.com/p/nail-setter Wife and I are still trying to figure out how to use this in getting nails in planks. More accurately, into planks and then frame.
  7. Harbor Freight and Walmart I can do. thanks Cap'n
  8. Where'd you get those mini-clamps/alligator clamps?
  9. Would wetting this piece affect the integrity of the glue that's already holding the planks to the deck? Also, would the rubber bands leave indentations in the wet deck?
  10. Can anyone recommend clamps to keep deck down against frames while gluing?
