    Default One insane englishman, starting again from where the thread broke

    Restarting from drilling and shaping the rudder.


    There was debate about how the holes were bored so accurately. At the start of the vid, we can see a drilling guide laying atop the rudder. 0.36 in.
    It really is quite difficult to build an ugly wooden boat.

    The galley cabinetry is well under way. The boat is really coming together. I wonder when the spars will be delivered.

    I think that this episode is also lost to us.

    Dunno what caused it, but page 30 comes up blank, and nothing past 30 shows at all.

    Can you test it please, as it might be OK on your browser?

    Just been to the original thread and page 60 comes up no problem. The last post on the thread is Hwyl's. Using Firefox.

    I just changed my settings to 20 from 40 posts per page. Page 59 and 61 show OK, but 60 is still white.

    So if we wish to use the original threads, check your settings.

    If you would have a good boat, be a good guy when you build her - honest, careful, patient, strong.

    The thread is working if you set your browser to 20 posts per page. There is something corrupt between posts#116 and #1181. Everything below and above those displays OK
