Nothing has been glassed at all yet just the deck and the hull stripped but after taking out the staples there is a gap at the sheer line in some places

: Kyle,

: If I understand correctly, you have the outside glassed, you've
: separated the two halves, and are ready to glass the inside. Is
: this correct? If so, you want to keep the width of the sheer
: line as close to the correct dimensions as possible. A good way
: to do this is to make spreader bars to hold the correct width
: while the resin dries. You can use scrap pieces of strips and
: cut then to length for the inside width at each station; just
: use the stations as a guide and number the strips. After you
: glasss and squeegee the inside, but before it dries, put the
: spreader strips in place to hold the correct width. If the hull
: is too wide, use some glass-reinforced packing tape to squeeze
: it against your spreader strips. Make sure you do this for both
: the hull and the deck, it's a simple measure that will make life
: a lot easier when it comes time to join them together.

: Hope this helps,
