Hi Ken: I am building the Model Shipways Rattlesnake and have really been struggling trying to visualize the bow details that must be carved for the head rails and potty, etc. I am a recently retired engineer who has always been very successful at interpreting plans and bringing them to completion, but I was having a tough time until I saw your excellent build log on your version of the Rattlesnake. I can finally understand what I need to do and must remove and redo the upper cheeks I have installed, but so what. I just want to say thanks for all the effort you put into your excellent build log and I have found it very helpful. Take care, Pete. PS Very impressed with your custom wood types you added to your build. You really do beautiful work!!
