  1. Below deck completed, all lower decks are glued in place.
  2. Installation of light well and fireproof bulkhead, completion of rear deck.
  3. To Mr. Delacroix - thank you for the explanation. To Willi - I'm sorry, you were right. Since after covering it with the deck, it will be virtually impossible to see whether the door is complete or whether a threshold is present, I decided to leave it as it is .
  4. Hi Willi, thanks for your comment. It is quite possible that you are right. But I was based on drawing 16-F. The door is not drawn here, but the bulkhead ends with the door border and the threshold is not drawn here. That is why I chose the solution I presented. Considering the fact that the author of the plans, Mr. Delacroix, is following the construction on the French forum and he had no comments, this is probably not a serious mistake. The last parts for the rear space have been made - the light well and the fireproof bulkhead.
  5. The etchings are made by a Czech company that is professionally engaged in the production of etchings. But the design of the etchings is my own, i.e. the company will make the etchings exactly according to my requirements.
  6. Hi Mark, the metal hinges are made from brass etched parts. Vladimir
  7. I continue with the aft deck. The "production" procedure will basically copy the procedure for the fore deck.
  8. The dust that is created during milling can be easily removed with a brush and debonder (CA glue is used to glue the foil). I continue by installing the front bulkhead and making the front lower deck.
  9. Windows - the last part on the stern, then I will continue on the inside of the hull. I chose the same method as for Le Gross Ventre - a frame made of two halves, in one half a pocket is milled for embedding plastic foil. After gluing, the whole is milled on both sides to the required thickness.
