I finally got a few strips put on and have milled some more coves on the strips that I had previously put the bead on. This weekend and tonight I got the center line strips on the hull. The kayak is beginning to take shape. The project requires a lot of clamps of various sizes and shapes. A friend of mine loaned me his dad's Stanley #4 plane and I used it to plane the edges of the centerline strips, a real fine tool, a real pleasure to work with.
Below are a few picts of my progress:
This is progress from the stern looking forward
This view is from the bow looking towards the stern
Looking along the center of the hull with the centerline strips in place
A view of the stern shaping up now, the lines look fair
Here I'm using the old Stanley No. 4 to bevel the centerline strips
Yep, it is getting to build another boat ... Mr. E would be proud
