trippwj Posted August 28, 2013 Share #35 Posted August 28, 2013 No worries there, Tim - should be a nice half-hull when you are finished and the step by step is very helpful for klutzes such as me!

Timothy Wood Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share #36 Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) That's a beautiful area, I took my wife up to Maine shortly after we were married. We went in September to avoid all the summer people from Mass and Conn. I should have remembered from my Navy Days that the state rolls up the sidewalks after Memorial Day weekend! Oh well we had a great time any way and I had a good time showing her my old stomping grounds!

Timothy Wood Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share #38 Posted September 1, 2013 Next two photos show the African Mahogany lifts. I will be using Mahogany from the water line down to the bottom of the keel, this area wont be painted. I intend this area to be natural wood, above the waterline will be painted with the schooners original hull color. Cheers, Tim I hope everyone in the U.S. is having a good Labor Day Weekend!

Timothy Wood Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share #50 Posted September 8, 2013 Greeting! All the lifts have been glued, the hull is ready to receive a piece of wood the will allow me to attach the hull to my Wilton Power Arm. Using the power arm makes the job of carving the hull much easier than if it was attached to a normal vice. I have added the outline to the backside if the hull. One step I have given myself an option with is the rudder, I can carve it into the hull or add it later as an addition.

Jim Lad Posted September 8, 2013 Share #52 Posted September 8, 2013 Ready for wood chips, Tim. If you add the rudder as a separate piece there'll be a nice joint line marking the division between stern post and rudder. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAd My Fingers Posted September 8, 2013 Share #53 Posted September 8, 2013 Lookin' good, Tim--you're about ready for some serious cutting! I think a separate rudder will look sharp--like John said, there will be a distinct line between it and the stern post. Jay Quote Current Build: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Wood Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share #54 Posted September 9, 2013 Greetings, I have attached the block to the hull, then I attached a piece of aluminum angle to the block, this bolts to the Wilton Power Arm. The best thing about having a power arm is you can move your work into any position needed. (See photos below). My first step will be to cut the shear into the deck, after that is complete I will start shaping the hull.
