Need suggestions for making strongback

<< < (3/4) > >>

vtsteam:
Looks like a nice hull, Sparky. You've got a slight warp to the left. Make your mould notches wider than the strongback. Run a snapped chalk centerline down the strongback and set the centerline of the moulds on that to correct.

Indeed... sounds like you have some experience. I still need to make some stands, then carefully line everything up. Once the first strip or two is on there, nothing should move.

A little Sparky...me in my shop in the 70's:

I take it that big black woolen hats were very trendy for boat builders in the 70's   :lol: :lol:...OZ.

What are you working on in the picture? It looks like the two boats in the background are pretty much done.
