Winch shelves
Short visit to my remote workshop where Glypto sleeps.
Currently I don’t have electricity there so work is limited to daylight visits with hand tools.
After offloading my car with material from Meritaten I decided to carve two shelves for mounting my old winches. As this was rather spontaneous action I forgot to take pencil with me but sharp hand drill made the trick.
Simple hand tools: scraper, file and sandpaper are all what was needed.
These supports will be glued and screwed on the inside of cockpit coaming. Winches are too wide to use existing shelves hence extension is needed.
It came out quite nicely. They are not perfectly rounded and it is clear that they were not turned on lathe nor routed on CNC. My whole boat is hand-carved so this matches the old lady.
