At the same time when I organized the timber for the jig, I bought 6 meter long planks of siberian larch. This fine grained wood is often used in boat building due to its water resistance and stability.

My VW Transporter with the 6 meter planks spruce / fir for the jig and siberian larch for the stringers.

I worked out the long planks in the same way as the timber for the frames. See my Blog for further details: https://minisailer.ch/?p=183

I have to cut the siberian larch boards of 6 meter lengthwise into the oversized width of 4x 35mm, 4x 55mm and 2x 75mm rods.

Festool plunge saw with long guide rails.

With the Metabo thicknesser they were planed to 22mm height and the exact sizes of 30, 50 and 70mm width of the stringers.

After planing all stringers i gave them a smooth finish with the orbital sander and rounding all edges with the router.

It was a long day at the workshop carrying 6 meter long rods from here to there, floor exercises and jumping back and forth on the planing machine. Boat building means sometimes a day long of full body workout.
