Spent just about the whole day flat on my back, but hard at work.
I now have the first layer of both sheers in place. At present they are only clamped on. Hopefully tomorrow I can glue/screw them on.
Speaking of clamps, I went satisfied my clamp addiction by getting another fix in the form of 8 new clamps. Needed them to have enough to clamp both sheers in place.
I have read in a few places that when building a wooden boat, anything metal you put in is bound to get in the way. Well I experienced that a lot to day. Had to remove completely one of the deck beam bolts, and in several other places had to remove the nut and washer to complete a cut. So I am going to end up with lots of washers with a flat ground in them.
No photo today, as I can't get a decent shot of the sheers installed.
