FrankWouts Posted Monday at 11:09 AM Author #403 Posted Monday at 11:09 AM While my Winnie is going to stay upright forever soon, before I continue planking the deck, I first shifted my attention making a nice stand for it. It’s 200X600mm. A friend made and milled the lovely edge to the pear plank in four passes... The pear is beautiful wood, but I doubt if it will match the Alaskan Yellow Cedar when treated with whipe on poly… I’m also thinking of painting it black, as it shouldn’t be a distraction from the model. What do you think? Hope to post updates on the deck planking soon! Frank.

Pirate adam Posted yesterday at 12:51 AM #404 Posted yesterday at 12:51 AM I think it would be a shame to paint it black. The wood is beautiful. Adam Ryland Craze 1
