| Project progess I put this here because it's not a serious project!  Updated daily or monthly or what ever, when I get something done! Day one: Form done and set up. I don't think the wind will blow it over. Day two: Mold frames done and chines cut. Needs a little bracing.  |

| Looks like it could be a nice little project - just remember to takethe blocks out before you 'float your boat' or it may become a submarine! |

| Thanks SW, I had plans to build a 16' scow, in a nice air conditioned shop! With some help! Well, first day, no one showed up, "we" were busy! Second day, Well, "There's a car show this weekend"! So I am building a 12" row sail, sort of dory, in the driveway at home, the shop is nearly 10 miles away! I have enough material to build half a dozen of these! I can get it in my shop at home once it is off the form, I will make a cradle for it on wheels so I can work around it this winter! Thanks again for your reply! |

| Day 3&4: Made the pattern for the stem, laminated a block to cut it from! Trimmed a bush that was in my way! Leveled and braced the mold frames! Started the lay out on the keel! Transom frame done with temp skin, fitted temporary on the jig, it will be planked later, and I mean "planked"! Also got all the long pieces cut and planed, battens, sheers, chines and enough to do all the stiffeners! |
