Assemble
the frames, sheers and keel without cement and place the
hull structure upside down on the building board. You
may need to tape or tie things together with string.
(I used kite string.)
After the frames, sheers and keel are assembled, then line up the marks on
the tops of the
frames with the centerline drawn on the building board.
Now
check to see that the frames are transversely perpendicular
to the keel and board centerline by referring to the lines
that you have drawn on the board. Note: that the frames will not be vertical
to the board. They were designed perpendicular to the
waterline. Also note that a 3/32" shim is needed under the
sheers at the transom to level the transom.
When you are satisfied with the fit
and all the frames are square to the keel, now you need to cement the
legs of the frames to the board. I used Thick CA
for this.
