Cutting the sheerline





With the rough sanding done it was time to cut the sheerline. For this I used the measurements on the station blocks, and I transfered them to the outside of the hull (remember: Measure twice, cute once!!!). Then I connected the marks with the flexible batten (actually a scrap strip of mahogany) and drew the line on all four sides. The first cut was made with the electric saw, to 5mm of the line, and then I went to work with a chisel, paying close attention to the direction of the wood grain, and I trimmed the wood to the line perfectly.
