MS: 18th Century Longboat - WIP
Attaching the bulkheads.
While doing the fairing I noticed one of the bulkheads was not properly set, so had to unglue it and reseat.
Fairing one one side only. Quite a delicate process.
Added the transom.
Added the bow fillers
Finished fairing... finally.
Bending planks
More bending
Using pencil to color the edges of the planks to give a "caulking" effect between the planks.
Took me more than 2 hours but finally got the top planks laid down. Had to bend them three ways. This is going to take a long time.
Another 2 hours to get the second planks down. The skill seems to be in bending the planks every-which-way. Hopefully I get better...
Figuring out the planking plan. Got *one* "garboard strake" plank down. Only took another 2 hours.
