: Mine looked the same, don't sweat it. Remember that the only part of the form
: that is actually a representation of the shape of the boat is the edge
: with the paper on it...that is if you faced the paper toward the bow on
: the forms in front of the cockpit and faced them toward the stern on those
: behind the cockpit.

: Did that make sense?

: On the forms in the middle of the boat the strips will lie pretty well
: perpendicular but as you get toward the bow or stern they will only touch
: the one side like your photo shows.

: BTW nice shoes :)

I just don't want to end up with a bunch of little steps like in this sad drawing.
