A busy week, but these are completed. All through tenons, the mortise were hogged out with a fostner bit, then chopped, from both sides. Took a bit getting through 6x6 SYP, laid out everything before getting started and drilled for the pins on the drill press so they would be square. Drilling tenons after the joints were put together, clamping the pasts square. I did not use any glue on these, all being held together with the joinery. I do have a few gaps on the top tenon, I can live with that.
They were copied from the Mini's I built a few weeks ago.
I built these for a project that I have been wanting to get started on. There is still a little prep work to do before I can really get it started. The plan to get started in building a Strip Planked Kayak, Sence I will be bending strips around forms for the build I needed something that will stay in place. These should do the trick, if I had to guess they are about 90# each, the cross brace will allow me to lace a temporary shelf between them.
When I get started on the build, I will start up a blog on the process. I am sure there will be some growing pains and testing of my skills building a kayak. A first for me.
Thanks for looking and comments are always welcome and appreciated.
