Strip: First Strips on Shooting Star *Pic*

Hi,

After a year’s layoff I feel the urge to build the Shooting Star which I had started already started. But on this my second boat I am cheating using staple. When I stopped a year ago I made a mistake on the stern by stripping the whole stern piece rather then leaving the pine section to be stripped with long strips tying it to the other station. The removal of the pine strips were easy with a hot knife slicing down the yellow glued seams.
