In Response To: Nice hull (Dale Frolander)

: Looking great.

: I noticed you installed a wooden pipe before the two halves are bonded
: together. That might make it a little harder to get the hull and deck ends
: to match since the hull won't be very flexible there. If the deck and hull
: match up easily let us know because it looks like a good way to put the
: pipe in.

: I like the cardboard cockpit to let you know where to put your deck patterns.
: I wonder where I've seen that before...hmmmm. ;)

Dale, I remember seeing the cardboard cockpit idea posted on the board and I thank you if it was your idea. I couldn't lay out the strips in a decorative fashion without it.
