Slow progress. Here is the 'just finished' front turtle deck and a slightly trimmed and cleaned up version. Still a lot of work.

I've set the false ribs in the stabs and created the stab sheeting. Hope to cut the lightening holes and sheet the stabs asap. Then start on the wings.

I need the wings and the stabs sheeted so that I can fit and align them on the fuz so that I can glue the wing & stab tubes in place so that I can carry on with the fuz!

Here you go Pete. A good South African Shiraz from our Robertson region near Cape Town. Around $8 in a retail store. www.zandvliet.co.za. (Sold in US under the export label "Astonvale" on http://african-tradition.com/wine/index.php for $16. - NO, I don't get commission!)
