We're back in the Open Door Boatshop and ready to begin shaping the piece of lumber we're hoping will make our breast hook for the work skiff we're building. Before we do that though we are going to make a slight adjustment to the shear line now that we have the lift rails on the boat. The breast hook is still rough within the notch we took out of the tree so we're going to flatten one side down with an electric plane. Then we can pass it through our shipsaw to get it flat on both sides before heading over to our steam bag contraption so we can cook the piece.
