  1. The two dales Each is made of 3 pieces as a base (bad photo, sorry) A finished dale Making the holes in the same place on both sides was a challenge. While the glue from the dales is drying, work continues on the inside. The support under each dale is fictional, and later virtually invisible. This gives the dale (as support for the deck) a slight curve And looking 5 steps further in the future. Checking the relationship between the sides of the castle, channel, mast and the schrouds of the main mast. Oops, I'm going to get in trouble if i go further this way... Noticed it just in time

  8. Further planking of the rear castle. I started with the part that was planked according to the clinker build method. These planks were not sawn but made from tree trunks that were split. length of the planks no longer than 2.70 meters The first of these planks was tapered. Above the tapered plank it is marked how high the upper plank may be Further planking And then there was a week's holiday in the sun, which was put to good use doing research . Back home and continue planking. The intention is to have 6 layers of clinker build, in total I should end up with 9. Above that there will be shields. That's why I first have to place the 2 dales, which determine the correct location of the upper deck in the rear castle English lesson : Dale.. old English word. The intention of these two dales is to drain the pumped water from the hold outside. And if you have to pee....Do it in the dale (so their 2nd name : pisdale... 😳)
