Plank 3



We are planing the land for plank 3 to be glued on.


We are using the jigsaw to cut out plank 4.


We are spreading glue on plank 3 and the land of plank 2.

After we have spread glue, we are carefully lining up plank 3. 


We are putting on clamps and scraping up the extra glue. 

Clamps are in place and we wait for the glue to dry.

Preparing the second planks


We cut the gain with a rabbet plane into the garboard plank at the stern, so that the second plank will be glued to the stem. We set up a fence to help guide the rabbet plane.


We beveled the frames with a spoke shave
We used a rasp to make the frames a right angle where the corner of the plank will sit.
