Magnificent work!

Your ports bring back memories of very hard work. Getting them square and in the right place (had to look way ahead at rigging interference.) Your new ports look great!

I wish I could do woodwork like you!

Nice detail work!

Karl,

I also see your rudder is un-shipped. Constructo shows the rudder mounted which didn't make sense to me. I'll try your toothpick method to make oars.

Thank you.

Very nice work! Better holes than I seem to be able to make.

Constructo shows the longboat sitting empty on the deck. I think there should be some oars and maybe a small mast with furled sail. Anybody got any suggestions? How do you make small oars?

Nice work!

Great guns! I'll be working on mine soon.

I wanted to post these photos of my hull planks since the old ones seem to have disappeared from our website. I plan on keeping this log for future reference if I ever finish it.

Excellent workmanship!

Nice workmanship!

Nice work!

Your planks are perfect! Nice work.

Great workmanship!

I'm building a Constructo Constitution and have just enjoyed looking at your superb workmanship. Bravo!

Beautiful workmanship!

Your workmanship is fantastic!

Very nice build!

I get a lot of help from all of you.

I'm trying to spruce up the aluminum long boat that came with my kit. I shall copy some of your stuff. 

Lawrence,

Thanks for those photos. I'm going to glue as much wood on the long boat as I can. I've already made the floor grate.

Thanks Augie & Karl

Constructo is interesting. Most everything they provide is with poor instructions and has to be scratch built. Except the small boat. It's a very un-imaginative hunk of aluminum casting and no instructions as to how to make it authentic. I'll do some research and create my own version. I see in most of your build logs you've scratch built the small boats, plank on bulkhead style

Thanks Dave.
