: Hi Et,

: Just had a thought (yeah I know, dangerous) but when cutting out
: the forms, one could use the remaining cut-out for a sort of
: reverse form to make a really nice cradle for the hull. The cut
: out would have to be opened up a bit to allow for the strips and
: the glass but that would be fairly easy and you'd not need every
: form, perhaps every fourth. You could then with an external
: strongback remove the male forms and replace with those that
: would fit in the same exact location to very nicely support the
: hull while the deck is built. Would keep the hull from changing
: shape in any way.

You'd have to do a second cut on these reverse forms to allow for the thickness of the strips plus the cushion material if used.
