: and made one last check to make sure all was keeping shape before lifting
: off:

and then lifted the assembly off and turned upside down to end up with an externally backed and shape controlled deck that sits stably on the table so that i could glass away. Without doing this, the deck would have broken at the dead horizontal ckpt scuppers and who knows what other shape changes may have inadvertently happened.

in either case of int or ext, sometimes deck or hull (if flat) shape retention becomes an issue when one has to be removed from the frame/forms to do internal work. this is one way to deal with it.
