    Wood from fruit trees (cherry, apple, pear, walnut) is very pleasant to work with. And it is also easy to bend (walnut a little less) I have no experience with plum wood. I was curious about your experience with oak wood, personally I don't like using it

    Looks great, Make the top of your plywood frames as sturdy as possible sorry about your band saw belt 😓

    You have mail PLANKING scale 1:1 The planks are of sawn oak; their lengths vary between 2m and 6m. The average plank width is 300–460mm; thickness varies between 50 and 70mm. I used this data from an English wreck for the dimensions of the planks.

    My brother-in-law fishes in his spare time. I told him I caught a really big fat fish. But the hole in the ice was too small to pull it up... He didn't believe me. Home now, today or tomorrow i will look fore info and answer on your Questions.

    Indeed, a very intriguing view of the upper part of the fore castle 🤔
  23. Baker
    Most drawings of that era show the fore mast in front of the fore castle

    Very good for a first model. Most important, learn and enjoy building
