Boom finished

 The gluing worked well on the boom. Cut it to 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 with the table saw. Planed it down to 2 1/4 x 2 1/4.  Cut it to 142” long. Trimmed the last 15” down to 1 1/2”. That makes a nice tapered end on the aft end. Then routered  over the edges  

Then wood is still wet so going to let it dry out for a week before varnishing. 

That was the last construction piece for the pocketship. Now to flip her and Fiberglas the bottom.
