Hi Ed,
I have been reading through your log with great interest as I have recently found an old Norske Love kit at a garage sale. The idea of building this ship interested me so I picked it up. Of course the set is partially built with many parts missing or damaged as it is my understanding this kit was originally purchase in the early 70,s. So you are aware, I am a complete novice at building boats.
I am going to have to plank the decks and hull for sure and not sure what wood to use as there are few instructions. I can tell that the hull would be mahogany as I have some of those in the kit. The deck confuses me as in some builds I notice the decks are lighter in Color and others in mahogany. What would be the best to use if I can’t obtain mahogany strips for the hobby dealer.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can give and thank you for your blog which has helped me so much already.
