Back to my day job after a stressful two weeks away

Back to some wood work on the picnic boat, Cutting out a pair of seat rails to replace the rotten and broken rails the support the thwarts in the boat 

A couple of runs through the thicknesser to get them down to the correct size 

Then an hour in the steambox to make them bendable to cramp round the gunwale to put some bend into the rails to aid fitting them into position under the thwarts 

Cramped in position and now leave them to cool off  overnight  and then start to fit them in to position 

This where the rails will be fitted after they have cooled off and will then be fibreglassed over to to keep them in position
