  1. Robbyn, Remember that this is the Endeavour, which has a particulary bluff bow and hence the need for lots of stealers. Try to work your stakes of planking so that you use the minimum number of stealers. John
  2. Thanks for the welcome back, folks. Popeye - you may well be appointed as MSW's poet laureate! John
  3. Robbyn, Do you want your final planking to be like kit instructions, or like an actual ship, as in the photo below of the Endeavour replica under construction? The final result you want will greatly affect how you go about it. John
  4. A fascinating project, mate - and a huge model. Please continue to update your log for us so we can follow the build of this beautiful yacht. John
  5. Dilute PVA wood glue works very well to secure knots, spices and seizings. It soaks into the thread and is invisible when dry. John
  6. Ed, Thanks for taking the trouble to re-post your huge (and very valuable) log! John
  7. Not only back with your log, Michael, but forging ahead with your build! John
