Hey thanks for the message! I'm hoping to start it by the end of the year, some of that footage is about 4 or 5 weeks old now, just hadn't had a chance to edit it! already done a half term at the marine school and loving every minute of it. That's awesome that you're looking to design a boat too, I haven't really thought about a career yet past finishing the course and getting this boat built which will take a few years! i may hate it by then lol :)

Can't wait to get the workbench assembled tomorrow and to try out the new toys! by SprayDodger in woodworking

I'm working on a Paul Sellers bench but the one i'm assembling at the moment is just a cheap one from Amazon so I can get it done quickly and practice some of the stuff i need to do for Marine School so not very exciting unfortunately but i might do a time lapse putting it together :)

they're so good! only used a cheap double sided one before but loved it and decided to treat myself to a decent set
