Oregon Lenny Posted January 26, 2021 #1 Posted January 26, 2021 This is my first build. Have the kit, have tools, paint and adhesives by the weekend. Hope to get advice making heads and tails of the parts... ccoyle 1
Oregon Lenny Posted February 1, 2021 Author #2 Posted February 1, 2021 Started my build yesterday. Got the hull shaped, yes , it’s solid hull for my first one... Got most of the deck planking cut, looking to lay the first planks tonight. Figuring out which tool/ blade to use is a challenge but I learned a lot yesterday (mostly how much I have to learn). mtaylor and ccoyle 2
Nirvana Posted February 11, 2021 #3 Posted February 11, 2021 Oregon Lenny, warm . Upload pictures to your build log and let us help your from there. As for tools, x-acto knife (specially blade #11) will be your friend, be careful it's very sharp, some various files and sandpaper. mtaylor 1 Please, visit our Facebook page!
