To do this I used a multi tool with a coarse reciprocating sanding disc and a batten to get the angles right. I managed to do the first two plank lands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We had a visit from Roger who brought his knowledge and a very impressive plane set and sharpening tools and leant us a small but weighty block plane. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.denmarkrowers.org.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/IMG_9859-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/denmarkrowers.org.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/IMG_9859-1.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/denmarkrowers.org.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/IMG_9859-1-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Roger&#8217;s beautiful tool set.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lachy marked up the scarf lines of the first planks and after he had left I had a quick play with the planks on the frames that I had bevelled and they seemed to sit nicely even if there is a hell of a lot of twist needed at both ends of the planks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Back in there tomorrow to glue up the keelson and the stems and scarf the first planks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cheers Dave<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday 21 March Monday is definitely not our most popular day.
