If a day will be reproached you that your job has not been done with professionalism, you answer that the ark of Noè has been built by dilettantes and the Titanic by professionals. ;)

Love the detail under the hinged pillars where the deck is slope-mortised to allow them to fully extend. Never seen anything like this before but it makes perfect sense.

 

Could you describe how you created the flange detail of the hawse tubes?

I have been following you for some time Giorgio, your work is wonderful, and you have taught me much.

I purchased a quantity of these clamps from Brown Aviation Tools USA, as I found the ones you have been using leave marks in the timber.

They are forged steel!
