CapnJack43 Posted July 7, 2022 Share #1 Posted July 7, 2022 Danmark took a little over a year to complete. Hull construction and deck fittings went well. I made a slip to help hold and align the keel and bulkhedas. Rigging was another story, I found that the best way to follow the rigging on the plans was to mark them with color pencils and number the lines with tape. Purchased a mini sewing machine for about 25 dollars to complete the sails. Made an overhead jig to hold the sails while rigging & made the showcase out of 1x2 pine and 1/8 plexiglass.
