Thanks Maarten, yes one of the things to do. But by hand because the keel is so curved. Have to be focus for that and I'll practise this first.

Thanks Uwe.


The first thing is to put in on different places dowels. Also make a fake lashing in the keel like on the bow beam.
Then I break my head on the rabbet. The 'achtersteven' (stern beam) also need some adjustments before I attach him to the keel. A lot of work to do.

Thanks Peter, sure it is. Throwing into the deep is the best way to learn to slim. I have all the time in the world. And I love to do this. And I hope that this blok will also a little educatief about Dutch ship build.


Today I worked on the stern beam. It is now in the clamps to dry. Later I show some pictures. It is possible that this could be a re-do because not everything went the right way. When it come out of the clamps I will tell more.
 
Like I said, maybe a re-do. I don't think it will. The part where the repair is visible will be later plaked will no more sisible at all. It was the part on the backside that worries me the most and that take out very good. I dit sand a little to much. It took me a lot of time sanding and I wanted to be smart and faster to do it with the sanding machine. A moment of......... and the machine took to much wood. So no more machines on these delicate parts. Let this be a learning curve. Better to take your time and be careful.

The problem area:

The back what could give a problem, but the repair is almost perfectly done.
The red arrow indicates the rabbet line. Somewhere above the black line the wood will be taken away from the keel to equal the stern beam on that part.

The other side is done with no problems

Now it's time to think about the rabbet but first I clean the part and start with the clou to make it perfect.
Thanks for watching.
 
@ all thanks for visiting my build log and likes, this is appreciated.

Today I finished all the treenails and joints in the keel. And give it a second layer of Clou sand grounding
What is still on the list?
  • Water markings on the keel.. (need some research how this will look. INPUT IS WELCOME)
  • The rabbet.. (First I have to find out the average size of the planking)
  • Sand it for a last time and give it a finishing layer of shellac.. (Stil waiting on the order).
Enjoy the pictures, I think the cherry looks superb.
