Build Progress Wk6

Details
Published: 17 February 2010

The planking is now complete on Job NB001. When the Keel and Stems are installed then the boat will be lifted off the moulds allowing Job NB002 to commence.

There is still some "fairing" (smoothing of planks) on some "flat spots" but this could be completed before the boat is painted while in Bay B of the shed.

Job Number NB002 The Frames have now been laminated (glued together) and are ready to be assembled when the building frame in Bay A is available.

Build Progress Wk4

Details
Published: 01 February 2010

The planking has commenced but there has been difficulty in installation of plank 2 as it did not want to sit on the moulds at the correct points. All the other builds are experiencing the same problem with even greater difficulty. We have now succeeded in installing it but a little "fairing" work will be required with "Long Boards" (long boards of plywood with 80 grit sandpaper attached). 

The following work has been done this week: Both Garboard Planks installed.  Port 2nd Plank installed. Starboard 2nd Plank cut and scarfed with rebates cut both fore and aft. This plank has been dry fitted (no glue applied), and is ready to be glued in position.
