Hi Henk,
You added nice details on the keelson, with your one approach and personal touch!
Regards, Peter

All frames and the keelson realigned and glued into the keel
Checked the keelson after every frame
Made distance blocks with my Proxon cutting saw
Maybe seem a bit exaggerated, but filed the keelson as tight as possible and I wanted to prevent the keelson from fitting less well later

All frames complete, no frames broken
All frames are now at right angles
So now I'm going to pick up my Sub again
You know how it goes, no peace in your head, if something is not right

Looks good! Nice solid build, Henk.
And a change to the Sub will reset your mind.

Looking very good, your work is paying off!
Glad you used the spacer blocks between frames, I did the same to ensure they were square to the keel and parallel to each other.
She’s looking good!

Thanks Peter,
Glad this phase went well, just watched it again and I'm satisfied with it
Thanks, spent quite a bit of time on it
and you know only the result counts
Thanks Dean,
I remembered this from your previous post, and I thought it was a good tip
This way you pick up something from everyone in this forum

Four legs leveled to make it easier to work on the frames indoors.

By removing a leg, the keel remains floating and you can easily reach it without putting pressure on the keel.

Assembly of the cross beams completed and the clamps made to align the top beam and secured with custom nails for the rigidity of the frames.

Upper decks cut out, and the cut slats used to partially plank the lower decks.

The last nails have been added
The mast feet are still dry fit and will be definitively attached when the deck upper deck is ready
For the upper decks I was able to get the right size and color slats in my hometown which I will plan later
(Add some cover seams in the photos I see
)

Looks good, Henk! A nice personal touch of your lower floor.
And good to see you still building!
