Wonderful job!

I started working on the transom, probably the less successful because of some asymmetry that I hope, completing the work, it is not too obvious. Meanwhile, I trimmed the excesses of strakes: I built the two stretchers of the transom: And the crowning that supports these stretchers: From this picture I get the impression that the courses tend to rise slightly to the left, although it seems not live; mah!

Exscuse me, Mark.... From the first picture I see that the plank of ebony has not a curvature harmonious but has edges a bit 'too accentuated. This could affect the lines and the beauty of the model! You still have time to correct this error!

Druxey you're right! Soon I'll have to paint the entire hull with matte varnish

I cut the excess The final result; I'll probably still reduce thickness because it seems a bit 'too much, but I'll do it later, when I finish the walled inside starboard and adjusted the length of the lead lining.

Before fixing the dolphins I believe I must cover the hawse pipes with lead foil. For this, I thought of using the commonest fishing sinkers, long enough and suitably machined on a lathe to obtain a kind of tube: Reached the diameter must have stuck in power, tapping it with a hammer. the tube in hawses

I am happy that my work can serve to help you! Thank you!

I started the construction of the dolphins bow; For these details, very mangy and difficult to achieve, I chose boxwood. They are made in two pieces joined to scull. After the first attempts, miserably failed trying to figure out how and where to make that scull, I think I've reached a good compromise: I preferred to keep me abundant at the beginning and gradually refine until the right size; Bonding: after a first roughing tests positioning:

While I carry on the long job of nailing the last strakes, I proceeded to make holes of hawses: their axis is parallel to the keel and have a slight downward inclination, to favor maneuvers hawsers: I also started the construction of the spur; To give more strength to the union between ebony and peer I thought to use a plug interlocking between the two species:
