I am really enjoying the process of lofting the frames. I redid the 3rd frame and discovered a misunderstanding in measuring the shear offset and height. It was what was creating the problem in the deck on the frames. Once that measurement was corrected from the half through the 3rd the deck lines became clear and the form jumped out when compared to the study plans in the book. Thanks for your insight and patience.
