: Tony,

: As I remember it, until most of the keel wires were in and partially
: tightened, the whole thing was very floppy. The temporary forms didn't
: firm up until at least the next hull plank was in and wired to the forms.
: I've got a few pictures on the web at the link below. They include the one
: below which may be close to where you are in the build process. You can
: easily adjust the wires to get the forms in the proper position as you
: work your way up the sides of the hull.

: Hope this helps.

There also is a tip in the West Epoxy site for using a short piece of dowel inside the seams with the wire around it to keep the panels edge to edge,worth a look. The nice thing about a S&G you can do all the wiring up with out doing something that will paint you in to a corner. I it does not look right, just cut the wires and start over. If you look and check for fairness before you commit to Epoxy you should be fine. Greg is 100% right, it is a wet noodle before you get the wires tight. I got a litle too happy with the pliers and had to add a few new holes. Just take them up little at a time.
