Almost there

A bit of smoothing and rounding and we have a mast

Mast glued up

The mast is now together. A bit of planing and then it too is ready for epoxy coating, as well as some fibreglass in the bottom end. Speaking of planing, I sharpened my no.4 yesterday evening making it a bit convex rather than using a secondary bevel and I got it really right! It cuts soo nice! The wood is soo smooth I doubt I can come close using sandpaper. 

The blade. 

The mast. Gunwales and inwales to the far left, and the wood for the chinelogs in the middle. 3D is approaching!

Will it fit?

I think so. 

A bit room to spare for fibreglass and epoxy. 

Glue!

Is it straight? I hope it's straight..

Mast continued

A bit of planing today (one of my favourite activities), and now the mast is ready for glue. 

Gluing centreboard case

Garage door open half past eleven in the evening. Cutting and gluing wood. Swedish summer at its very best. 

Foils continued

After a another long brake I brought the foils to the family summerhouse. Managed to apply SEK 300 (€30) of epoxy light fairing compound on it an then remove almost all of it with the random orbital sander. Now they are ready for glass and epoxy.
