Thank you Mike, Omega, Bob, Mark, Tasmanian and others for the kind words and the likes.

It is now nearing the completion of the deck.

The following is still fine sanding and we will see the final result.

Patrick, thanks for the compliments. Nice to hear from a true master :)

 

How do I have a problem with bad English I made a few pictures to explain how I do it.

I do not think I'm doing something special that others do not work.

  maybe is  the secret to great pressure on the planks glued part.

 

each plank especially sanding and checking measures

excellent step by step, reminded me of long hours this summer doing a similar thing on the cover-board on Maria.

Hi Matija

 

Many thanks!  The pictures painted a thousand words and made the process you use really clear.  What's also evident is the amount of work and effort required to achieve your level of precision.  Thanks once again and I look forward to more updates.

 

Cheers

Hi Matija

 

I love the work you've done on the deck furniture. Even though it may be early days, the workmanship is already evident as witnessed by the carefully rounded corners, precision of the construction and the beauty of the wood.

 

Well done and I can't wait for more updates.

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Matija,

 

Beautiful work - your attention to detail is quite simply stunning!

 

Patrick's (Omega1234) comment about the '... carefully rounded corners' is all too true and prompted me to think about how you might have made them. Were they cut from solid timber, laminated or created using some form of dark art?!

 

Keep up the fabulous work,

Yes, how did you round the corners so tightly?  We want to know.

Thank you all for your interest and good words.

 

Michael, I hope that the deck will remains the same after the coating protection.

 

Corners I got after several attempts. I first tried to laminate.

The thickness of the finished slats is 1.25 mm. When bent in several layers, very thin wood,  it is badly looked or cracked. I cut it out from pieces of wood and manually processed. No dark art only work and repetition ;)

The pictures show cutting only for example, now I  cutting the  bad  tree   ;)

Extremely impressive work - all that and you've still got your fingers &thumbs intact, I think if I'd attempted something so intricate I'd now be in bandages!!

Hi Matija

 

I can only repeat, what all the previous speakers have already said!

 

... and I was also wondering how you've made the wonderful rounded coaming?!

Thank you for showing us the way of solution in your post  :) 

 

Again and again it's a pleasure to visit your workshop ...

Thanks to everyone that follow my log, which give likes, support and nice words.
 

Row, it's all luck,  as all fingers is complete, so far I have only good sanded nails .. ;)

 

Thanks Mike, I'm also a joy to see your log and the progress of construction.

 
Today I finished my deck. Now give him a lot of attention, sanding and coating ...
Here are a few photos, I hope you will like:

Matija,

 

That decking is beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Such nice work. I wasn't familiar with this yacht, Pen Duick, until your build log, here, and I find it such a very attractive boat - you're doing a fantastic job of her. (Makes me add it to my 'potential builds' list)

 

Cheers,
