cpt. Tom Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share #65 Posted June 11, 2014 (edited) A little progress on the cabare I have to report I make the stern timbers but two on the right side are still being made. Sorry I don´t know the English words of these components. The two stern timbers on the left side are not yet glued therefore they are not straight but everything fits well together....!!! Some parts I made 5 ore 6 times until they were correctly Here are the pictures Edited June 11, 2014 by cpt.

mtaylor Posted June 12, 2014 Share #66 Posted June 12, 2014 Tom, The transom is shaping up nicely. I think what you're looking for is "transom timbers".

cpt. Tom Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share #70 Posted June 13, 2014 Hi to all, thank you for your comments and all the "likes" you did....!! Today I build my first Frame (Nr. 63),first I had to do was sawing the frame out, than sanding on my "Sanding table", than sanding with hands and at last I put the tree nails on. The color from the tree nails are too bright, I have to find out what I can change.

woodrat Posted June 17, 2014 Share #71 Posted June 17, 2014 Tom I am concerned you may have rounded of the aft edge of your frame which will mean you may have an unsigtly transition to the next frame, in this case the filler timbers below the transom timbers. I think the aft edge of the chamfer should be sharp and to the line indicated on the plan. Cheers. Dick mtaylor, Elmer Cornish, cpt.
