  1. I just this morning found your new project Valeriy and have read from the beginning your progress. It is so good to hear that you are well and I'm excited to follow along on another one of your wonderful constructions. Your logs are always packed with great information and techniques, which I appreciate you sharing with us. The hull looks excellent, and I look forward to future posts with anticipation. Gary
  2. Good call on the rail stanchion racks and associated awning beam stowage. Avoiding the visual clutter of the detail while still acknowledging the existence of it, is a clever solution. Gary
  3. Wonderful progress, Eric. She's coming along very nicely indeed. Gary
  4. Nice Chris - you did say these were paper, right? Could have fooled me. Gary

  17. Excellent - another river boat and a great start, Eric. A terrific new workspace too! Will be following along with interest. Gary
  18. The head repositioning is artistry, Marc. Not so much the mechanical act of it, but in visualizing what needed to be done. Gary
  19. If you haven't already, check your local hardware/building supply outlets as this sort of tape is often used on sheet metal ductwork to prevent air leaks. Varying widths and possibly thicknesses. Excellent (and fast) progress on your model, Nils! Gary
  20. Greetings, Here's the current state of the model. The backbone drawing template was printed out in three sections onto full sheet label paper. The wood for the backbone is poplar and was cut to the required thickness using my full sized table saw. The templates were affixed to the poplar and cut out with a scroll saw. The rabbet was then carved into both sides. Below, the backbone is sitting temporarily on the station forms, waiting to be permanently attached. This model is being placed on temporary hold and it will be some time before I post again. I thank all of you for your interest in it and I hope to report some progress by the end of the year. Thanks. Stay well. Gary
