AnobiumPunctatum reacted to Mike40 in Galley Washington by Mike40 - 1:48 - POF
Thanks for your encouraging comments Mike, E.J. and Gary. I am enjoying the framing. Maybe because it's not too difficult. I'm sure the stern/transom construction and cant frames will be a bit more challenging. I figure that I will learn what I need to know as the build progresses. What I like best is that I can do most of the work sitting down. Quite a change from the usual woodworking I do and a relief at my age. It's also nice to not be covered in sawdust all the time!
I thought you might like to see my work space. It is heated and insulated so I can work there comfortably all year around. It's really a woodworking shop of about 228 sq. ft. so it is more than roomy enough for modeling. I could make some really big models here, but I wouldn't know what to do with them when they were finished! In case you are wondering, the odd looking machine in the 3rd photo is my shop made 'Chevalet de Marquetry' which is used for cutting out intricate marquetry pieces.

A little update. Still working on the frames. They are sitting loose on the keel with a couple of wood strips next to the keel to help keep them balanced. I noticed I put a couple in backwards from the photo. I still have a few small adjustments to do before gluing them in, but in spite of them looking out of wack they actually line up nicely only they don't stay that way by themselves.

Something curious about my frame drawings from the Washington plans. Suddenly the bolt hole locations are omitted. As I previously mentioned I am pinning through the bolt holes to accurately locate the aft and forward parts of the double frame for gluing. I don't know if this omission is accidental or otherwise. It's not a big deal, as I can mark out the holes myself, but there is a greater chance for error that way and it takes a little more time. Not whining, but maybe a heads up for NRG.

Nice to see you back again, Christian. The work so far looks lovely. As Greg points out, the scores in the rising wood will locate your square frames positively and accurately. It's too bad no-one will ever see them later on!

After a Long time I can Show new Progress of the build of my Sloop. After the stem I started building the lower and upper apron. Especially the lower apron, was really difficult. I need three trys until I get an result which I decided to use for my build. I think that I wouldn't get it better. I accent all glueing joints with brown color. After finishing the stem looks as in the following picture: David Shows in his book a simplified method for Building the rising woodI decided to follow the more detailed way, because I have a very precise Position of every second Frame. I think that this will help me in the future. I used this simple dummy frame during the build for checking the wide of the notches
Next step will be the after deadwood.

Your approach to the rising wood will help you immeasurably when it comes to raising the frames, Christian. Well done!
