    Jim Lad got a reaction from Martin W in Muirneag 1903 by Blue Ensign – FINISHED - Vanguard Models - 1:64 scale - A Scottish Zulu Fishing Boat Based on the Vanguard Models Zulu Kit   
    She's really looking the goods.
     
    As an aside, but relevant to the discussion above re fishermen's lives, one of my 2x great Grandmothers was from a small fishing village on the east coast of Scotland.  She was a young widow when she married into my family!

    Jim Lad got a reaction from Bob Cleek in Making nice square deck furniture?   
    Best way is with a template of some sort.  I use a couple of scrap pieces of wood that I have joined absolutely square using an engineers square to check the angle while the glue was setting.  Pieces can then be held against it while being joined.  I'm sure other members will have far more sophistcated methods.
