Thanks for the response Bill. I had it right then. I was just a bit concerned because all forms seemed to fit nicely until I slide form 2 in place. That bows the gunnels out away from the rest of the forms. I thought maybe just maybe I was looking at the decimals in the spacing dimensions wrong.

How about fitting the stems? Any words of wisdom? This just doesn't seem that intuitive to me.....or maybe I'm just too chicken to dive in and figure it out.....
