BFootB - the image sizing has change on Flickr. This is what works for me:



Upload and organize images
Go back to Your Photostream and click on the required image
Directly above the image click All Sizes (icon 5 from left)
In the Available Sizes view of the image, click Medium
Right-click on the now medium sized image and select Copy Image Location
Proceed as before

Nice looking boat and joinery .... aaahh, to have a shop with all that space...

Wow, very nice work. Could you show how, what tool, gig, your using to get that machined dove-fit?? It's functional and very tight looking. I'm envious.

Just lay it out with a sharp pencil... and cut it. Measure everything.

Hi, Boats

You do nice work! Picked up your comment re screw fastening from the "A Folkboat Found Me" thread; I'm working on a Folkboat built by Abbott in Sarnia, Ontario, the planking of which is not only screwed to the frames, it's screwed through them with nuts on the inside! I think that there're one or two others in the Forum working on Abbott-built boats fastened the same way.
