24/12/2021 - Spent the afternoon of the 24th moving some storage items to make room for a layout and work area. Hung a couple of lights as it’s pretty dark back in this corner of the shop. The ply to make the bench tops came with the cnc parts and the lights are used from one of our buildings (install is not to code)
Plywood turned up whilst I was working out of town, just in time for Christmas :). On pallet was 9mm plywood, Douglas fir CNC parts and Purple Heart for keel.
The plywood, Douglas fir, CNC cutting and Purple Heart is all from west wind hardwood https://www.westwindhardwood.com/custom-milling/
I’ve knocked down the pallet, next will be sanding, trimming and sorting.
Plan is to seal all internal wood before assembling anything. I know this is the most efficient method but seeing all the parts it’s very tempting to pick out the bulk head pieces and start on them. I will sleep on it.
Purple Heart for keel
5/8 16mm for vertical part. 3/8 9.25mm for horizontal Had parts laser cut by Precision Laser & Fab Inc Saskatoon.
