The length of the vessel starts to become obvious, although it is difficult to get a photograph of the whole thing: below the transom can only just be seen at the far end.
Space in which to work continues to be the main problem, particularly when the bulk of material arrive. I am looking at ways to use the masses of room above my head.
I ordered and paid for the bulk of timber today, which allows me to print the current costed Bill of Materials below.

ReplyDeleteLooking good, John. I am sure your next project will be to set up some sturdy overhead storage racks :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for your wonderful compliment on the plumeria!

Getting excited myself. Going overhead for storage? Always a good idea. I know you will make sure it can't fall.
ReplyDeleteHow did the monster storm do? Still have your power if you were blogging.
