Bevelling Bumpf

Woodworking is part of the Cosmos...... see below....
About the bevel on the Transom; left to right:
John's book says start with Jigsaw and then chisel.  I found this a bit slow and
tedious.  So, I worked out the angle of the bevel (bevel plane and angle
calculator done on the bit of wood), then used planes and the -- best of all --
the spokes-shave.  This worked out pretty well, though slow.

A bit of the biscuit used to join the pieces of transom peeks out after
I've done some bevelling with the spokes-shave and planes

I've sanded a bit of the transom and it's going to look great.
This is a bit that looks like the Oval Galaxy, above.  The Zen
and galactical interconnectedness of woodworking....
