In Response To: Re: Off Topic: Half hull sailboat plans (Bill Hamm)

: Half hulls are usually made either from lifts, horizontal sections
: of the hull roughly band sawed then after stacking the square
: edges are planed to make a round hull, or from sections,
: vertical sections of the hull done roughly the same way. Either
: way it's lots of planing and sanding.

: Bill H.

- good point Bill: the lines and/or offsets would be more useful for making half-models.

Joe: good luck with your endevours, and please post pics of the results!
