Aug 15,
I have not ordered the HDPE pipe for the tanks yet so I can not finish them yet. It was time to do some more word work anyway. I've really missed the carpentry. It is time to finish up the deckhouse now that I'm sure the tanks will fit in the boat with that structure in place. I wasn't absolutely sure before.
 |
| I took all this apart and cleaned everything up and glued it all back together. |
 |
| I've left off the trim pieces on the entrance. I'm still debating the best approach here. |
 |
| Measuring for notching in the longitudinal. I'm notching both the longitudinal and the deckhouse beams using a half lap joint. This will ensure that the joint does not weaken the beams at the expense of the longitudinal which really isn't structural. It is more like deadwood for the decking. |
 |
| A close up of the half lap joints. This is actually a couple of hours worth of work just for this one piece of wood. |
 |
| This piece fit so well I decided to call it a day after knocking it together. No screws or glue yet. |
I had similar luck with the starboard side. Now, all the framing is complete with the exception of deadwood where necessary. It's now time to finish up the tanks and get them installed.
