It's been raining since early this morning & hasn't stopped so decided to build a rudder & put rudder tube in the boat my next chore will be making a opening in the deck & I'm always afraid I'll make a mistake in hole cutting dimensions because I have no more mahogany door skin left for the deck . Then fun starts putting the motor & stuffing box in another day

It's been my experience to measure twice -cut once and go buy more wood...
I admire you guys building in wood. So far everything I've done has been plastic with perhaps a veneer overlay. Maybe the next boat . ▲

Good to know you have it under control Garth.
Currently getting the garden raised beds ready. They needed reinforcements and used shelf brackets. I couldn’t go get anything from the hardware store. Glad I had screws. Stay safe too! Ron

My deck is a piece of Mahogany door skin that I had lying around I think it's 1/16 inch & the deck is about 28 inch's in length one piece . I had a sheet that was 4 feet by 4 feet but used it all up over the years for different projects I should be O/K Ron thank's for the offer stay safe out there .

Is that the veneer sheet or mahogany glued to 3ply. A 24”x24” panel is available at most Home Depots. If you need just a bit, 6”x10” I have some. I could mail them to you, but try Home Depot first.
One side is Oak the other ??

Just a little more completed . When building a scratch model sometimes it take a while to figure out how to get into boat for any repairs or battery changes so it took a while my solution use some nuts & bolts to hold cabin down Wife wanted shed door repainted after I accidentally sprayed some yellow paint on door so had to get some cans of brown paint .
