Start of a new build. German newbie

Hi,
I just started to build the pocketship from plans. I plan to document the journey on youtube. First video is online:

I don't have any experience in boatbuilding nor youtube-creations, so please be patient. Helpful comments are very welcome! :-)

Hello Mlade,

thanks for sharing. To my knowledge yours is the 3rd ongoing build in Germany (ours, the third one).

Thanks for your reply. Where are you from? Do you know, where the third build is located?
I'm building in the north of the Saarland.
