Week two

On Monday we got some striped planking and placed in situe the chine plank and made the next plank going port and starboard of the 2 center planks.






Tuesday we have placed down 2 more in between the port and starboard planks we places yesterday and we are currently taking off the chine plank to create some ripping into the plank to reduse the tension on the plank and make it easier to curve and twist the plank.
Wednesday the team completed some more strip planking and clued in situe.

Week one Setting up shaw 5.5

Hi

Last week we started on the setting up process to build the Shaw 5.5 by drawing the grid onto the floor.
Tuesday we contuinued on the floor and built the garboard and the building block.
On Wednesday we installed all of the frames and also layed out and glue the 2 center planks and made sure that the 2 planks formed a centerline that we can work from.
