Sorry, I didn't mean the joints—I meant the notches on the keel. Frank

Hie Frank,
The distance of the notches are determined by the distance between the rafters and is discribed in the book. The same technique was used in the past on the real ships.

Best regards, Rob

Thanks for your welcome and Nice words. Highly apricieted.

In the meantime this thread is catching up with the status of my progress.
The frames are provided with a slot for the inner keel. I had to make this by hand. The milling machine was not able to reach it.
