: I did similar to Andy. However, I epoxied small strips of glass between the
: wires prior to glassing. The joints had fillets previously added. After
: the epoxy set, I pulled the wires. Next time, I won't bother with the
: glass strips. The fillets are enough to hold the shape.
Yeah, the fillets hold everything pretty well. I did bits of fillet
between each wire, pulled the wires, then completed the fillets and
sanded them down to a smooth contour. That was quite a bit of work
and handling of the hull, which didn't change shape at all whilst it
was going on. I didn't measure the deadrise or rocker at all during the
building process, but only much later, in response to Kurt Maurer's
comments. Both were just what I would have expected from the Squeedunk
vrml file. As long as you cut the panels the right shape, just wiring it
all together should get the hull to the right shape, with no more than
a single spreader whilst doing the fillet/glass steps. I used an internal
spreader hot-glued in place when I glassed the outside... only then did
I add part-forms which I needed to do my strip deck.
