Hi Ashley. I don't remember removing any char? I did slightly edge sand the inside edges to put a slight bevel on the edges to ensure the edges butted together. All the best on your build. Hopefully, no short planks on your ship too!

I have Pavel's San Bartolome that arrived in Feb or Mar of this year. I would like to start it, but haven't really felt up to taking it out of the box yet.

Many thanks Rob for the reply. I shall have to do some calculations in char removal vs almost, none removal.

Well done on your Santa Maria. She's truly beautiful and I've not even read your full build notes yet. I look forward to the rest. Your build log is also beautifully presented and documented.

We are so fortunate these days to have the ability to share our work over the internet so others can learn and benefit.
