    Hi Keith this looks amazing 
     
    I was wondering what is it you’ve placed under the skylight grills, the blackish bit? You may have already mentioned and I might have missed it. 
     
    thanks

    Finished putting together this grating/hatch/deckhouse thing.  I'm sure it has a proper name

    Hi all
     
    this is referred to as a skylight in the plans. I assume the area under the brass bars would be glass???? Does anyone have a suggestions on how to get the right look?
     
    cheers

    The plans say to drill a 1.5mm hole for the pins. I haven’t measured the actual diameter of the pins themselves

    Some of these deck items are more complicated than I thought they were going to be.  Didnt realise I had to so the shaping on the pin rail bits(not sure if correct term) or the little square parts on the railing

    Thought I'd add a couple of photos of what I added today, the break water and the fore hatch coamings.  Disappointed in how they both came out.
