Thank youHappy Birthday!!
Happy Birthday Bird.
Hello everyone quick update on the Sussex navy board model, I've completed the sternpost and transom timbers section, I first started by cutting some card stock to get a nice curve, I then sanded the correct angle on the ends where they meet the last frame and then I glued it all together and finished sanding in the transom, I am now in the process of filling the ends of the floor timbers and futtocks, I took my measurements and snapped a line to get a nice curve and then followed that with painters tape and then I can give the hull a final sanding and then I'll be moving on to the interior work. Thanks...
Beautiful. 
Interesting
Due I inderstand correctly, that you will remove / sand down the slightly too long futtock and floor timber parts (marked with red) ?

very clever - otherwise it is problematic
Hello everyone it's been awhile since my last update on the Sussex navy board model, I decided to finally rebuild my shop the right way, the old counter tops were made from cheap plywood that over time warped and twisted so nothing was flat or level, so I took a break from the ship to get this done before spring, I tore out all the old stuff and replaced with butcher block counter tops and I always wanted a French cleat wall hanging system so I made that wrap all the way around the room and made 4 adjustable legs, now I have to do some wire management and bring my tools back in and build some nifty selves for everything, I will keep you posted along the way, I should be back working on the Sussex in a short time, thanks everyone..
Super impressive!
WOW - what can I say more - WOW
FANTASIC SPACE, WELL DONE, BRAVO. GOD BLESS STAY SAFE YOU AND YOURS DON
Thanks
Thanks
Are you going to have extra outlets installed? Looks great!
I am putting 3 of these 5 foot long power strips along the bottom of the French cleat , when done I will have 55 outlets, that should do it !! LOL
Truly enviable workshop Bird. The surrounding cleat system, well done!
Hello bird I just came across your construction log. Dreamlike workshop you have achieved and also your Sussex is wonderful.
Remember, that strip has a total ampereage availability. Don't overload.
