Hello everyone!

Thank you so much for your likes and kind words. I'm very happy that you like my work. Many thanks to Karl! After finishing the Fly, I remodeled the room, about 15 square meters, exactly how I've always wanted it I continued transferring the waterline plan. The frames were also transferred to it, the sheer board was cut out, and everything was aligned. This (hopefully) provides a good foundation for setting the frames.

















I wish everyone a happy new year and good health!

Regards
Andreas

Very nice workshop, beautiful board. Keep in mind that your frames are still slightly oversized, so either lower your board a little or sand it down by 1 millimeter.

Thanks Tobias for your tips.
Lowering the plank is one option. I'll sand the frames to the exact shape at the height of the board. That way, the board stays at the specified height, and the frames will still fit perfectly.

Hello everyone!

Happy New Year 2026 to all!
The frames that have already been made have been sanded to size at the level of the sternboard. Now it's time to make the remaining frames all the way to the stern.











Regards
Andreas

Lovely work, Andreas! An interesting approach with the localized fairing. That should provide some guidance as the fairing continues later in the build.
