: This may be a basic question but my instructions are a bit vague.

: I'm building on an external strongback. You can see the setup
: below, with base blocks screwed firmly down, plywood on each
: block screwed at a single point for adjustment, and forms
: clamped on the plywood. I've clamped long strips near the sheer
: line and keel to check alignment.

: Do I apply initial strips along the sheer prior to locking
: everything in place, or lock it down first? I see how a driver
: could yank stuff out of place, so I figured I'd ask rather than
: guessing.

: Advice?

:

Lock everything down once you have all your stations and stems aligned.
