  1. Your frameing is looking really good. Congrats for reaching this milestone.
  2. Welcome to the Triton shipyard. Your start is looking really good.
  3. @Chris If not, perhaps it is possible to publish your drawings. The Prince is allways a very fine ship to build a model.
  4. @dgbot I know the model of Mr. Cole. He published his model on a website. @Ed Thanks very much for your description. I will give it a try before I made my decision. I made some other tests but these don't work very well, so I am trying and learning in the moment. The rabbet of this small vessel is really challenging and I don't want to break anothe backbone.
  5. Alan, my condolences for your loss. It's a nice idea to build the model in memory for him.
  6. Mark, that looks like a promising start. I wish you all the best for your second attempt
  7. I'll follow your log with great interest. I find this little boat very interesting. Thank's for the book hints. I hope that I can find some in Germany
  8. Dan, I don't know, what I can write what was not written before? It's a fantastic build and build log with lots of tips. Thanks very much
  9. Ed, thanks for the info. It's a completely different model and that is what I like
  10. Congrats for reaching this milestone, Ed. Your hull is looking very impressive. Do you think of publishing your drawings later?
  11. No pictures this weekend. Yesterday I tried to cut the rabbet but I am not really happy with the result. There are two main problems. The keel has over the whole length a curve wgich is quite difficult to cut precise. The second problem is the prepared rising wood with the notches for the frames. At this smaller parts the timber will bunk. So I decided to build another backbone for my small cutter and try the rabbet again. I am thinking of only cutting the loer half of the rabbet at the midshipframes. During fairng the completed hull I am thinking of doing the upper half of the rabbet. Has anyone did a rabbet this way? I hope that the changes I made in my design will help me to get a better result. If not, I will decide which of the finished keels looks better and use this for the rest of my build.
  12. Mark, I wish yo a lot of fun with your beast. I'll follow your log with great interest.
