Rudder and Deadwood: Episode 26 of my Carvel Planking series

Normally in a carvel-planked new-build the ballast keel and deadwood would be fitted to the keel , and the moulds set up on top, but I didn’t have the height in my shed to do that. The plans allowed me to build the boat on the plank keel and add the deadwood later, and now it’s time to do that. I bought several baulks of Spotted Gum over a year ago and in this video I show how I shaped each piece and fitted them together, and I show how I built the rudder, also of Spotted Gum. https://youtu.be/btXZ_6F6iAA?si=PtDjRPNq44ihn_zE
