Well I sprung the keel plank into place last night. Bending a 1 inch thick by 8.7 inch wide white oak board to a pram keel shape is not the easiest task. It took 2 hours to cut out the shape from a 9 inch wide board.
The next task is to cut out the transom. The plans show two pieces that are riveted togethor, but I think I will modify the design and use epoxy to glue the top to the bottom.
My only problem is which epoxy to use. I can not get Araldite in Texas, so suggestions would be appreciated.
