iMustBeCrazy Posted February 19, 2024 Author #31 Posted February 19, 2024 First issue with the drawings, moulds 2 and 4 have the labels swapped, 2 should be 4 and 4 should be 2. mtaylor and oakheart 2 Craig. I do know, that I don't know, a whole lot more, than I do know.

iMustBeCrazy Posted February 20, 2024 Author #32 Posted February 20, 2024 Some progress, in a forwards direction Build board built, 'deck beams' bent, everything glued up to and inc the 'deck beams'. Wale being test fitted (again), waterway being worked out (they're next I think). After the waterways it'll have to be the counter timbers, that will be fun.

Biggest worry at the moment (apart from everything else) is the MDF bulwarks, I have to fair one side unsupported so that I can plank or line them so they are supported to fair the other 🤷♂️ Tony Hunt, oakheart and mtaylor 3 Craig.

iMustBeCrazy Posted February 23, 2024 Author #35 Posted February 23, 2024 A tiny update representing a lot of head bashing. The inner pair of counter timbers: I had to remove 'deck beam' 18 to get them in, all six will be attached to it before being installed as an assembly. I thought I had the outer counter timbers worked out (several times) but I think I'll have to give up and do them in multiple pieces like Chuck did Cheerful. oakheart, CiscoH, mtaylor and 2 others 5 Craig.

iMustBeCrazy Posted February 24, 2024 Author #36 Posted February 24, 2024 Next two counter timbers done. Also some planking, a wale, the counter and stern roughly mocked up. I think the counter is going to need a slight curve on the sides. davyboy, oakheart, GrandpaPhil and 4 others 7 Craig. I do know, that I don't know, a whole lot more, than I do know.
