Moderated Re: Hello. kd860. Lots of questions


 

Conrad, it is not necessary to buy a kit You can draw the parts on a white pva painted chip board which is cheap then place your plywood on top and reproduce the part on the ply and then cut it with a router or jigsaw. This is cheap and fast. I drew my whole boat's parts on one board. If you work accurately your boat will be perfect. I would suggest that you get a decent drawing program that can read the DXF files from Berndt. You can also nest the parts to get the most economical use of your plywood. Once you have all the parts in the computer you can make small adjustments to customize to your requirements. discuss it with Berndt as you go.

Hi Alain
?
Interesting how many persons are interested in building a KD 860 in Asia. This is a generalization of course.
I see also, to my surprise, that it is difficult to buy waterproof plywood.?
But with a bit of research it is not difficult to find suppliers.
Here an example a company who sells plywood from Vietnam. But has also addresses from other countries
