Bluenose ll was built using the same lines and design of Bluenose l. Going to their site you can find many images that will help. Once you get to the deck lot's of images help.

Good day folks more work on the ole girl today I started off by over painting the pedestals in brass color as I thought they would look better than black, while they were drying I started boring out two holes under the hull ready to take the lugs on the pedestals.
When they were both ready I offered them up and stuck using CA glue.
Here are the photos -

cog reacted to vaddoc in Deben 5-tonner by vaddoc - FINISHED - Scale 1:10 - a Whisstock yard design
Thank you all, it really has been an exciting moment!
I gave it a go to install the ribs and surprisingly it was very easy. I soaked the beach strips in water, wrapped them three at a time in a wet towel and heated the whole thing in our old microwave which had been stored in the garage. There was a small learning curve but the strips took the bend very nicely. I got a few in but now the real problems begin:
1. I know where the bottom end of the ribs go (except the bow and stern where I will need to guess). I need now to figure out how to space the upper end along the sheer plank.
2. How should I secure the ribs to the planks? I will use tree nails for sure and in the end probably also put a bit of epoxy to the bottom end, hopefully they will hold well enough. Should I also glue the ribs to the plank? This will be a messy job I think.
There is really very little working space. I have the flexible Dremel drive but I might need the angle drill accessory

Thanks. That will be the final design, but I will probably make a new set when the time comes.

Not so temporary looking those cradles, Russ ... could be the permanent type, would certainly be for me ...

Hmmm, it is always a surprise once you get at it again. Nice details my friend. Though slightly larger than Igor's builds, still stunning detail! Wish you could spend some more time on Shadow ...
