Name boards

When launched, Fair Maid had a pair of boards affixed to her transom, presumably with her name n them.  We decided to replace them.  The plan is carved lettering in jarrah, filled with gold foil, and varnished.

Having never done any carving this has been a serious challenge.

First, a practice board.

Not happy with the results from the router, so let’s try proper carving.

Time to try some jarrah.

Time for some proper tools.
