Table coming together

 This the parts for the table having their edges varnished. Tracey was able to choose whatever colour and texture she wanted in Abet Laminate. This was then bonded to marine ply of the required thickness. Tracey decided to go for exposed edging and it looks great.

Ballast

A couple of tons of lead being melted down for ingots. We bought an old keel from a local yard as well as some internal ballast from an old work boat. The joy of internal ballast is that you can move it fore and aft to get the right trim.
