STEP 13: Adding the Stern Gallery

Fit parapet banisters made from vertical pieces of 1x5 Walnut plank against the parapet wall at the ends

and middles of the parapets as shown in picture 3 below. Plank the inside of the parapet walls

between the banisters with 1x5 Walnut planks laid horizontally. Scrape and sand the planks smooth

As shown in picture 4 below, fit and glue the two

sides n.40 on the stern gallery, clamping with

tape and pins until set.

The pyramid-shaped base supports for the stern

gallery are made from sections of the balsa block

provided.

 Offer the balsa up beneath the gallery as

shown in picture 4 below and mark the

profile on the top face of the triangular

section as shown.

 Cut the marked portion off the block and

then plane the hypotenuse face back (about

8 mm) until level with the outside point of the

gallery marked on the block, maintaining the

section angles of 45 degrees.

 Offer the block up under the gallery once

more and place the pencil marks in their

original positions. Mark the point on the

bottom of the block where the hull planks start

to curve around the frame n.1 – so that the

lower point of the support will just butt against

the back edge of the hull. Use the side and

end views on Plan 4 as a guide.

 Mark cutting lines on the block from the top

face to the lower point marked previously.

Trim the blocks on the two end faces to make

the pyramid shapes required. Glue the blocks

in place under the gallery and clamp in

position until set. Sand the joints smooth.

 Using figure 12 on Plan 3 and the side and

end views on Plan 4 as guides, plank across

the stern under the gallery using two layers of

1x5 Walnut planks, trimming the end joints

neatly. Plank the faces of the gallery support

blocks with a single layer of 1x5 Walnut

planks.

 Using figure 15 on Plan 4 as a guide,

plank the roofs of the gallery with a single

layer of 1x5 Walnut planks. Plank the

gallery sides with 0.5x3 Walnut planks

laid horizontally and making neat butt

joints with the hull. Plank the inside face of the stern transom over the deck and over the

galleries with 0.5x3 Walnut planks laid vertically, trimming them off level with the transom

profile.
