Yesterday and today I worked on BH2. This went smoothly, with no problems. I spent some time shaping the side frames down to match the curved bulkhead. I was pleased with the result, though my plane is not working as well as I would like. I've got a sharpening problem I have to deal with-- as in I have to learn how to sharpen my blade iron better.
During the construction of BH2 I realized that I screwed up on BH1, cutting a 19x19 mm piece for the bottom frame instead of the 45mmx19mm piece that the plans call for. I have not decided yet if I want to keep the original piece or put together a new one. The question is pending on the Storer forum. I'm OK on wood, but I don't have a lot of extra, and cedar is pricey.
On the road for the next 8 days.
