Slow but sure. Horn scarph glued up, rough sternpost ready for the knee brace, ready to order the bronze bolt stock. If I hurry, I can have it shaped with the power plane before they start to load boats all around me for the winter. I'd like to get it planked up in a month or so. After that, overtime at work will have me drained. I don't know where some of you find the energy.

You're a good man, Rich VanValkenburg. Damn nice work. I don't know where you find the time. When you coming out this way, LOL.

Rich, slow and steady does it.
Not to worry about this year. If a job is worth doing it is worth doing well, as the Shakers and, my old mentor Phil Clarke would say.

Looks wonderful Rich! You do beautiful work, are you going to be putting in glass floorboards so everyone will be able to admire afterwards? :D
