Recent Progress

Our priority is the hatch.  To that end we need to mill over 600 lf of the modified beadboard for the hatch covering.

We start with 8/4 white oak and saw it to 3/8" thickness.

Next we will sand one surface of each board before splitting them in two to approximately 3/8 x 3/4".  The sanded, split boards will then be milled with a tongue on one side and a groove on the other, both with a quarter circle detail.

Meanwhile, we surfaced the four hatch ribs on both sides.
