Hi Bill,

Internal strongbacks don't have to be significantly straighter than external ones do, just rigid. Yes, they are a bit more of a nuisance to make them that way, but not much. Ripped plywood laminates into a fine internal beam, and the quality of the plywood does not make significant difference because of the glued layup. Supports for the forms are easy to wood screw to the laminated beam, a metal beam would have to be drilled and tapped.

Cheers,

Allan Edie
