    Hi all Just a little update. Port and starboard have been partly first planked. Cannon ports have been located and cut out. Dummy cannon supports have been cut and painted with two coats of thin black acrylic. Next up is clean the lower deck and place and glue the cannon dummy supports. Denis.

    Hi Brian I may end up doing the same, but I was happy the way the SoS turned out. Did you use enamel or acrylic , I prefer enamel myself ( and I think I would put a drop of ochre or black tint in it ). Denis.

    Hi All I have been busy sanding the bow filler blocks, what a job that was. Also done the false keel parts. Denis.

    Hi Timmo Thank you for dropping in on my log. To be truthful I have not given the planking a lot of thought yet . Are you talking about hull planking or deck planking ??. I have some Kauri but when I started to sand it down it was very soft so I gave up ( but will try again ). I have not looked at Matai yet. Yes I know macrocarpa and is a nice colour but I have never tried to mill it down to 1 x 4 or 2 x 6 etc for planking. I would like to see some photos of what you have done please, send by PM if you like. What do you think of the table saw ??. Denis.

    Hi all Just a little update . I have put extra spacers in at the stern bulkhead frames as two of them looked a bit warped , I do hope they are OK now ??. I have also dry fitted the other two decks just to make sure they fit Ok. Will now take them off and fit the stringers and parts 18, 28 and 29. Denis.
