second plank glued on and therd plank drying, on both sides.
here's the picture for yesterdays post.
first plank glued on, and secound plank pined in place, on both sides.
the first plank is on and drying. when the secound plank is dry, I will re position it and use it to scribe a line on the first plank. then I remove the first plank and whittle it to the scribe line--then glue it to the hull.
I put all the plywood I cut out to slide the decks in, back in, to hold the decks in place for planking the hull.
I'm subscribed to your build Santa and look forward to seeing it progress. You do fine work.
the poop deck is very small and will not be added until the hull is planked.
forecastle and quorter deck
top deck
lower gun deck
Now I will start working on the decks.
