Thanx for the compliment Grant, and who knows, in a next build you can always try it, i have to say, it is a lot of work, but the looks is fantastic

it has been almost 3 weeks since the last update, so it is about time to show something.
I stained the crossection first, and this was the result
I think that the sight of the treenails is quite good, and i like it.
After this, it was time to place the Maststep, the Beams and the Knees, i also placed the Carlings.
Except for the knees and the Maststep, everything is dry-fit, because i also want to place some iron bolts in the knees, the maststep, and the Keelson.
I don't know how i will do this, but i'll try something out on some spare wood, in the next updat i hope to show you some of it.
And last, an overvieuw of the Deckbeams and the Carlings
I'll see you all next time.

The staining and the outcome of the treenailing looks very nice, Peter.
The deck breams gives her body.

Yes, all of a sudden, you can see that the crossection is not an empty hull
Good afternoon Peter. Looking good!!! I also like the way your treenails have come out with the stain. The beams etc all fit really and ready to go. Cheers Grant
You completely nailed it Grant, i love the outcome of the treenails as well, and the fitting of the deckbeams and the knees etc, is spoton, just a bit of filddling with some sandpaper, and it is looking good.
