Just discovered this log and am now following!

Great work and the Jarra wood is interesting. Love how it aged during your hiatus. Side note, your break was half as long as my break on the BHR, while we raised two daughters.

Your joints and deck construction is looking really good! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks muchly, Brad. During my hiatus , however, I ventured into ancient and mediaeval waters and a number of models which are logged on MSW. During this time the Gros Ventre sat in the shed glaring at me and ultimately bullied me into getting on with it. In the meantime my three sons had shot up and were now demanding the car keys!

Cheers
