Drawing the main hull panels

Two hours of work last evening. We cut to size, stacked, aligned and screwed to the table 6 plywood sheets in 2 layers for the two main hull side panels. Alignment needs care, and we used a laser pointer to make sure that the sheets were properly aligned. This is important because we use the long side of the sheets as baseline for the measurements... Once the alignment was called good, we drew the panel shape using the measurements given on the plans. The curves were smooth enough without any adjustement. Tomorrow we'll cut the panels, and then we'll stop for a couple of weeks due to a business trip in Japan.


Total work time to date: 19 hours
