Okay, I promise this is still being worked on. Summer was very hectic for me, and I somehow acquired an actual boat (an 18' Dunphy seagull, for the curious), so this kind of fell by the wayside. 

That said, I'm working on getting the rudder attached, or at least in a condition that I can attach it when ready. I found the laser etched brass straps for the pintels are a touch shorter than I would like, but I can still make them work. I did have one fly off my  tweezers while I was trying to attach it, so now I'm in a waiting game for replacement parts because I doubt I'm finding a  piece that small in my den. 

Pintel pins are cut and ready to glue, and the lower gudgeon in attached. Need to attach and drill the upper one.

Great job, keep going.   Your documentation of this project is excellent.   I have started the Pram myself, just doing the first boards and keel now and I will most definitely be using your writeup as reference material.   Bravo.
