Woodworking kind of a day. Built a little frame for the hatch above Rek's workstation with a screen to keep the bugs out. Still needs to be varnished

@neauoire There's beauty in small things well done. Is it a specific wood that you chose?

@rostiger it was in a pile of finishing wood at the hardware store, and we got the hinges from a marine store. We'll stain it with coffee tomorrow :)

@neauoire Ah, I thought it might require a specific wood or finish to make it more durable in the sea environment. Are the pieces of the frame glued together holding the screen where they overlap?

@rostiger yep, and instead of glue I used 2 part resin, it's super strong.

@neauoire Keeping my enemies, the mosquitos out of the boat was such a major upgrade to boat life!

Else I'd be up in the night with a flashlight scanning all surfaces, because inevitably when I was just about to fall asleep one would buzz past my ear and then I couldn't possibly sleep until it was found and crushed.
