Thanks Graham. Yes, I do intend to feed back any issues to Jotika.
I have just come back onto the site with the intention, (as you have already suggested), to copy and paste the YouTube link:- ▲

Hi Cormorant,
Good start to the build. Are you going to feedback all the issues you find to Caldercraft so they can update the kit? If you paste a link to your YouTube video into the text section, it will allow everyone to take a look. Graham93 ▲

Thanks for the advice on a plank bender. I had never heard of them.

Hi Colin
A plank bender is similar to a pair of anvil head secateurs and you use them to cut into the grain of the wood to create a bend. The more cuts you make and the deeper you go the tighter the curve. Practice is required on a scrap plank and one of the main problems is being overambitious and cutting right through. Good bit of kit though. ▲

Looks good now it's faired Steve,- hard to get so many planks flat with such tight compound bends๐

Hi Steve.
Looking good so far but your comments have left me with a question. What does a plank bender look like and how is it used. Thanks. Peter.๐ ▲
