Very nice framing. I'm assuming they were the cnc versions.

Hello Ship Mates, Yesterday the little fellows and I completed installing the upper, lower and center main whales. Then we discovered that we had taken the wrong point for the Thick Stuff, they were placed fat too wide at the stern blocking the view between the frames. So to correct this boo-boo we decided that this had to be corrected and reworked this area, taking most of the day to do so. Should have been paying a bit more attention.

I hadn't spotted that one!
It wasn't going to be visible for much longer anyway.

Looks really nice Lawrence. I like the way you tapered it all the way back.

Hello Ship Mates, This AM the little fellows and I have reached a mile stone in our HMY Fubbs build. We have finished all of the exterior hull planking, the .500x .130" or 12.92x3.12mm posed to be a bit of a problem being so thick and wide but that is all behind us now so we can move on in this very interesting build.

That inside is looking very good, Lawrence. The different wood colors gives a nice contrast.
