Strutting stuff

A lot of miscellaneous prep before final assembly. This included finally getting to ripping the gunwales and outwales which makes now 108 feet of 2x4 ripped by hand or hoof.

bulkheads finally ready…
also reinforced the cradle we’ll use for assembly which does, yes, look suspiciously like something you might otherwise flip over and eat a sandwich on.

but the good news is: we’re all ready to put her together now.
