"Parallax" wrote in message om... big snip Only managed to do a little caulking today. I go through this with all my projects - sometimes they'll sit for more than a month - in fact there's a repair project in the living room that's been waiting for more than a year (built a boat in that time though g) This morn, I pre-fastened the stringers along the top of the sides. I will have to wait till my son gets home from school to really fasten and glue it. My biggest mistake with this boat was that when I put together the cockpit frame, i managed to get it a little twisted and this has slightly twisted the entire boat. I believe I can deal with this. I hope that the next boat which I stopped when I fastened the cockpit frame will go better as I have learned a few lessons. I began this project as a test to see if I was psychologically suited to building a larger boat and I think I already have my answer. My innattention to detail is a real problem. Furhtermore, although I know better, my mind erroneously interprets detailed directions as "here is a suggested way to do it but you might be able to find a better easier way". Those who can pay attention to small details and follow directions have my admiration and envy. |
