[Kerz Atao F14800]

This is simply amazing work with the highest level of attention to the smallest of details. And I know that @Jimsky Jim will agree with me on this one: I would also love to see a picture of your cat.

Here is the big boss of the house and he is very unhappy.

The big boss is a beauty! Thank you!

WOW! Excellent craftmanship, and many thanks for sharing the entire process of making frames. So...if I understand you correctly, you

are using only copying saw to cut frame

Yes, I mainly use this saw. I do have a Hegner saw but I find it too noisy.

But the Hegners are doing very good work - I have also one....
and you are doing very good work on your model

Thank you for all your encouragement.
Here are some photos to show you the situation today.
As you can see, I am making a model that will be partially finished so you can see the interesting details.
A previous photo shows the parts just installed and not glued.
In the next two photos, they are definitely stuck together.

On the other hand I drilled the locations of the pump feet.
The four holes for the pumps on the main mast were easy to do with a drill, but for the two on the jigger-mast it was a little more delicate and ended up using needle files.

To follow manufacturing of a knee-rider. The assembly and gluing of the parts is done on a sheet of bristol 160gr/m2.
