Very impressive, cutting out those bulkheads with a jeweler’s saw! Interesting ship. I’ll enjoy following this build.

Hello everyone, I was busy today cutting out more bulkheads, probably tomorrow I will finish all of them and can start on the false keel.
Hello all, I have cut out more bulkheads and transferred the false keel patterns, the false keel made out of two pieces of plywoods.
Hello everyone, all the bulkheads have been cut out, now I need to sand the rough edges.
An important step is done....it is looking realy good
Thanks for stopping by,not really yet as for now is getting complicated,above the lower deck will sort of POF .

Good morning everyone, I have finished cutting out the keel, made out of two parts and the rest of the bulkheads,
also did a rough dry fit.
also did a rough dry fit.
I forgot to show how the two pieces of the false keel joining together, and now I am off to build a holding jig for the keel to keep it straight and true.
Good evening everyone, I managed to finish today the building board keel holder for the Ontario, it was a challenge to keep everything straight and square.

I don't like to mention this, but I think your stern post is incorrect.
The transom vertical beams has to go on each side of the rudder. As you have it now the rudder can not go up.
I might be wrong, but I think you should check it.
The only reason I noticed it straight away is I've been working on my transom on the RC all day.

No problems. When I start to show you all my RC, I would also like input from other siblings.

Good morning, I have started to align the bulkheads.
This is absolutely amazing Zoltan. Lovely workmanship and more so the way you brought all this together to build the frame.
Not to get off track, but how did you bend the mahogany for your cap rail on the Mayflower?
