cafmodel Posted August 21, 2020 Author #212 Posted August 21, 2020 Yes, it is the same as the boat in the plan. It should be a general-purpose boat, and many ships will use it mtaylor and BobG 2 Quote

ASAT Posted October 2, 2020 #236 Posted October 2, 2020 Tom, I see your hull shape came out very smooth, how do you ensure this when you cannot fair the frames after installing like other POF builds because of the clinker “steps” in your frames, other build methods use jigs and alignment aids but still major fairing must be done to achieve a smooth hull. Do you still fair the frames after installed but maintain the “steps”?

Tankerman Posted October 2, 2020 #237 Posted October 2, 2020 I am nowhere near ready to start construction of this kit yet but have been studying the instructions, plans and components from the two boxes. The photo shows one of the many frame component sheets and you can see engraved lines on the frame components that require fairing. My assumption is that each clinker step will need to be filed to the line to achieve fairing - a lengthy but necessary process. Hoping this answers your question ASAT.

ASAT Posted October 2, 2020 #239 Posted October 2, 2020 I believe those lines are to achieve the correct frame bevel? I am asking about frame alignment and not being able to fair them with a long sanding bar. Remove the offending frames and re position? The jig only ensure that a few frames are In alignment- eyeball the rest?
