Progress So far got the frame built, Trued and Faired For once I didn't have to lock the main frame into a jig to hold it straight while I installed Bulkheads It was true and remained true throughout the process.
Getting her Faired in
Main deck on and Planking started
Used a Pencil to edge color the thin plank strips this is the easiest way I have found to do it.
Planking complete and sanded smooth. All Butt joints penciled in.
Here is how I like to do this step once the lines are drawn on I go back and cut the lines with a sharp #11 blade The cut is only half way through the strip
Next I take a mechanical pencil and go back over the cuts so it gets down into the cut
Now I re sand till the lines blend with the caulk lines between planking
Complete and ready for the Bulwarks
Got one side done minus sanding and my favorite little buddy came over he wanted to help so I let him sand the completed Bulwark while I worked on the other side getting it planked
Should get the deck clear coated and Bulwarks installed and get the planking of the hull started tomorrow.
