Glued some narrow boards together to make wider boards for the sternsheets. These boards are about 1.7 metres long so the clamping was a bit tricky - have to keep them flat while applying pressure the the edges. Need more clamps!
Started shaping the floors laminated earlier and found a mistake. The first batch of laminations should have had another strip when they were glued (fortunately todays batch have an extra strip). Here is a photo of a finished lamination next to one that is still in its grotty state. The lower piece has been shaped to fit nicely against the planks of the hull with a nice fair curve across the top. Unfortunately, it is too thin. It may be possible to fix this by gluing another lamination to the top - at least I hope so!
