Lovin' your post! Nice work and a wealth of info from your pictures. I am, at my rate, probably a year behind you. I take a lot of time in summers for golf LOL. I am all coppered up and working on the grates of the upper gun deck now. A lot of copper plates.
Very well done BriFinished all gun ports happy with the results........On to the rudder

So going to have enough copper plates and done one side, will have to let it cure fully before I attempt to trim unless you guys have a way to trim it I'm overlooking?

Good morning Bri. I'm gonna make a bacon butty for lunch today. My Mom was a Kingston lass and bacon butty's were sometimes lunch for us kids coming back from school. I haven't had one in years. Bravo with the rudder coppering, some of the pics of the stern look amazing. Cheers Grant
Enjoy your butty Grant (nothing like a good bacon butty lol)
A bit of progress not doing much today as my two girls got spayed yesterday and are feeling a bit sorry for themselves
