I made the hawse pieces extra thick and used a lot of spacers. They looked awful rough but they sanded out well enough to lay some planking on. I am currently working on the three small platforms below the lower deck Mike ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Making them thicker and then thinning them after they're installed is the perfect approach to this task. You've got a good solid foundation for installing multiple decks, if you so desire. Gene | ||

I am going to build the lower sections of the three masts in order to set the correct angle of the masts in the openings at each deck level. Mike ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
