In this episode we're going to get out and fit the caps on our V-Bottom Skiff. These are white oak pieces of lumber that we specifically chose to help follow the curve of the boat. We cut them down to a rough size with a quick tracing and then more accurately traced the interior edge of the caps along the in-whale. Then we have to plane that saw cut from the band-saw out with a hand plane which can be very tricky on a curved piece like this so we have to use a few tricks to help us. Once that edge is good how we like it, we can use a small gauge to draw a line on the outer edge and then take that over to the band-saw and cut that also. We'll touch that up with the planer also, before putting it back on the boat and ultimately, we can make any minor final touch ups to the caps while they're in plane with a rabbit plane if needed.
