Let see if it measures up In a mince pie & coffee fuelled frenzy of abhorations, we managed to do some check measurements on the Romanza, using the Six Metre Rules and the details contained on the plans and a certain amount of intuition (ok guess work!) we managed to check a number of the plugs vital statistics.
All of which you'll be pleased to hear checked out ok! Well they did second time around when we got the LWL right! PJ was most pleased to re-acquaint himself with some of his apprentice tools from Avro days, which hadn't seen the light of day for some time to assist and so we now feel confident enough to move onto the next process, making the mould. My panic that we hadn't built the stern correctly was unfounded, unfortunately PJ had already spent too much time adding 20mm and reshaping it to make it an exact fit for the plans, if we had done this process first I don't think we would have bothered! (Sorry PJ) cost £1.99 mini mince pies time spent 4 hours
