Trussben Posted October 23, 2018 Author Share #642 Posted October 23, 2018 Getting ready in the workshop to start modeling again, humidity coming back into controllable range with my system, QA Barge just about complete and summer projects will be put away for Winter over next couple of weeks. First thing on list is to mill some Swiss pear to correct dimensions to continue with lower deck framing. Looking at the hull there has been absolutely no movement over the summer months - 😅 ben oneslim, AON, Mike Y and 9 others 12 Quote Current builds: HMS Pegasus TFFM. HMS Winchelsea.

Trussben Posted November 22, 2018 Author Share #645 Posted November 22, 2018 Lower deck framing continues up to beam no.9. This can be frustrating work to keep everything correctly spaced and symmetrical, constant adjustments need to be made as well to account for drift. Layout for the aft framing including the beam arms can be seen. ben Valeriy V, iosto, paulsutcliffe and 34 others 37 Quote Current builds: HMS Pegasus TFFM. HMS Winchelsea.
