Hi Oliver. Good news your surgery went well. We’re getting old unfortunately ! Just wanted to stop in and check on your project. Hopefully in another couple months I’ll be back in the shop working on my La Belle ! Warm weather pursuits prevail !

I found a small piece of ebony in my stash so I was able to mill enough pieces to make the main wale.
It looks like the black India ink matches the real stuff well enough to make the remainder of the strakes below the wale.
I’ll see if I can find some more ebony in my scrap pile though…
I’m only able work in short periods before my shoulder aches so be patient it may take awhile.
