Thanks Bob and Kiyo.

Hoping to keep the progress going with these two.

Hi Chris


Great to see you back on the forum and busy building.  Hoping to see some of the fleet at Wicksteed this year for an outing...???


Very best regards

Thanks David. The problem I was having with seeing and posting photographs has been resolved fortunately.

Well, planking has started, I may be some time!   :-)

These could well be my only plank on frame builds so it's good that I'm doing diagonal and longitudinal planking. It's going to be two layers of 1/32" ply on the Fisherman and 1.5mm bass on the Faun. Enjoying it but it's going to be a slog on the Fisherman!

Tony, if you read this, not all Faireys are the same!  {-)
