 Hello everybody,I don't have much update,last Saturday when I started drilling holes for the tree-nails on the poop deck I made a big mistake ,insted of drilling holes only on the planks with butt joints I was just keep drilling holes on each row of the planks,totally lack of focusing due to a headache on that morning when I woke up.I did not feel ok that day at all but I was keep pushing myself to work on the ship.So I ended up to rip all the planking not just on the poop deck but all the other decks too. I decided to replank again with a different wood,probably teak as my wood shipment arrived,currently testing walnut wood filler for tree-nails,posting pictures tomorrow.

 Sorry to hear that Zoltan, nothing worse than having to redo work you have already done due to a mistake. Hope the headache clears up too.

Walnut on the left and teak on the right.
