I traced the cockpit cutout on the wood prior to the first epoxy layer and then left in the staples that were inside the cutout. That gave the shape some more support until the epoxy dried. You would be surprised how much of that are that twists ultimately gets cut out for the cockpit. It's not as bad as it seems when your laying your stips.
