With the weather remaining cold, I have moved on to smaller projects that I can do in my mud room. I've started work on the forward beam cutting the necessary Doug Fir pieces and plywood butt blocks. I've started gluing these together. It looks like the colder weather will hold for a few more days with a threat of snow for tonight. After it departs and we return to normal temperatures, I'll return to the hull. Meanwhile I have to be satisfied with making bits and pieces.
