I resawed the wood for the planking, decks and hatches at a friend's place cause his saw had the riser blocks. The whole boat is bookmatched. :D
Lots more in the other threads I just bumped.

Bump 'cause I fixed the picture links. And while I have you here you may as well check out this little youtube video of Minnow in action. It's pretty easy to get up to 5 knots but 2.5 is more...

Frames, bulkheads, transom, stem, stringers and bottom ready:

I'm bumping this to the top because I fixed the broken picture links from the big Imagestation debacle.

Man, the US team was all set to win but made a strange play on the last stone of the last end and lost to the Finns. :(
I think his mind is pretty well closed up tight about this one Pist. Unfortunately. :(

You didn't read the links, I guess. Oh well, I guess I'd rather have a prejudice against unvented heaters than ignorence about the effects of poisoning myself.

Roger, Have you seen the Swiss Rali planes? They have reversible disposable blades. I haven't tried them but they look pretty cool in the catalogs.

Let's just say that Ian Marchuk wins the cigar. smile.gif The guy originally wanted $5-600. This is not the only score like this Hugh has found. You should see some of the stuff he's been finding...

Glad all are ok, Wayne. Has anyone heard from Bamamick?

Jamie, some here have had login problems and no longer have their original member numbers.

Another option is the wooden plane kit from Ron Hock, the famous blade maker. I've been hinting for this as a birthday present. smile.gif

Spruce doesn't have one characteristic that great boatbuiling woods have - rot resistance. Mostly it is used for spars - masts, booms, gaffs, sprits. I think this is because it is flexible and strong...

One of my first posts here on the forum was about that TV show (my original member number was 1053). There weren't many responces and I wondered why. Then a few weeks later I was poking around in the...

If she's building a 1 story office won't the mezzanine be above that?

Or ask around at Noonsite ; the global site for cruising sailors.

Great pictures, thanks!
Steven
Al, I didn't see what happened. This thread is just hearsay. I have seen you harass Joe way beyond normal bounds. I think you need professional help. Dutch, too, for that matter.
Steven
Your contempt for Joe is so strong that your opinions on this subject are worthless.

If you have any pics to post I'll do it for you - and I won't delete them after a couple of months. smile.gif
Keep it coming!

I was just thinking you could admire them, not build them! They really are quite nice looking for a simple boat. Gavin and I are making the pattern tonight for the second strake of his Elf. We...
