After coming back from a great Easter Break, I
hurriedly completed the hull by fitting the two balsa blocks at the
stern and sanded them down to match the contours of the hull. I started
by placing the blocks in situ and marked around the cutoff points with a
pencil. I then used the Dremel to quickly remove the bulk of the excess.
Once the blocks were roughly the correct size and
shape, I glued them in place and continued to shape them with coarse
sandpaper. Finally, I applied some filler in the small gaps and then did
a final sanding once it had hardened.
Quite happy with the boat as it stands and will
soon start work on the other parts.
More soon!
