Today's activities have included Stuart visiting a local stone merchant and gathering a selection of stone samples for Yarwood's hearth - this afternoon I got to choose said material ..
Also met Chris, the upholsterer, this afternoon. Tomorrow I make the final selection for the back cabin seating material and deliver the curtain fabric.
Here is the template for the hearth
and here is the minuscule chosen sample..

The central heating has been up and running on Yarwood throughout the day - as a necessary test and also for comfort for the workers. Joe went off to get the bullseye glasses sandblasted to prevent the risk of fire and I have been tackling the insurance industry to get Yarwood covered.
Everything made sense to me until this:

ReplyDeleteI should have explained in the post. The 'bullseyes' are glass 'skylights', for want of a better word. They are about 6 inches in diameter, convex on one side and flat on t'other and they are set into the cabin top to let in light. In the past there has been occasions where the sunlight has been concentrated (prism effect?)and caused a fire inside a boat. To avoid the possibility of that happening we have had the flat side of the glass sandblasted - the light is still coming in but it can't concentrate.
