    The kiel still in one piece is complletly cutted and sanded. Two pieces of support parts for kiel and shaft hole must be glued together with kiel sequentially. For first must be glued support on one side, then must be cutted out the hole for shaft. After that can be glued on place the second support from other side of the kiel. After drying can be the hole ajusted for the shaft. Please do not glue the shaft in the kiel in this time.
    The same procedure is used for rudder shaft.

    many guys use parts cutted by plasma cutter or CNC miller. For old timers like me is the best the fret saw. For transfering of lines from plans on plywood I use the copies of plan maded with laser copy maschine. I put it on the plywood with the lined side and then with iron I melt the printer collor and transfer the lines on the plywood. I stard with cutting of the kiel rib which is maded from four parts.

    For first this challenge was preparet for new and young modellers. As you can see on attached plans, the construction of this boat is pretty simple. For more interest is possible to chosse from three super structures. Till September we just prepare beginers for building with explanations about constructions and material. From first of September we start with building. First thing was re-drawing of some parts in plans. Model is drawed like model for EX500 class. That means, its not a radio controled model.
    We re-draw all ribs and kiel in sketchup which must be prepared for rudder servo and rc components.

    from last update I make some progress in build.
    After coating inner side with epoxy, I cover the deck with planks. Then I sand the deck and cut the holes for superstructures and service access. Then I finish the sides planking and start with superstructures. On last photo you can see the wires for position light on front mast. I cut two grooves on sides of mast and then I stick in two wires with glue and putty. After sanding its almost invisible.
    (guys sorry for my English ๐Ÿ˜ , if you see some errors just let me know ๐Ÿ˜› )

    On last modeler meeting my brother please me if I can built him some RC Boat.
    He was excited by my Fisher boat Naxos.
    So it was on me to find some plans for fisher boat.
    I remember on plans of old Norwegian fisher boat model called ARTUR.
    It's cult model in Czech and Slovak republic ๐Ÿ˜€ .
    Standard length of this model is around 65 cm.
    For better manipulation and transporting I mus make shorter version.
    So I remake the plans and now I start built model with 41 cm length.
    I hope you will enjoy the build with me.

    He was enchanted by my fisher boat NAXOS. So it was on me find some plans for building. I remember on plans of old fisher boat called ARTUR. We can say its cult model in Czech and Slovak rep. ๐Ÿ˜€ .
    For better manipulation and transporting I must choose ideal dimensions for model.
    Standard length of this model is around 65 cm. I got to fit to box 50x50x50 cm.
    So the length of this model will be 41 cm.
    For keel I use hard ply wood with 4 mm thickness and for ribs 3 mm Ceiba ply wood.
    Plating with spruce planks 4x2 mm.
    Hope you enjoy the build with me ๐Ÿ‘
