Hi Hollywood.

Indeed an abitious plan wihout any previous experience. Your questions show
you need to learn some basics. Do yourself a favour and buy the
"Boatbuilding Manual from Robert Steward.
It can be found on Amazon:

It explains all your questions you just asked and more. It is worth the
investment.

Good luck,
Meindert
