We have a sort of boat shaped object

 Today we placed all but one of the frames/bulkheads and it looks like a boat-ish thing, if you can imagine it covered in a skin of ply. It all went quite well using the laser level, much much easier than strings,and levels -  the only thing is figuring which frames will blank out the lasers lines as you place them.

 Now the fun stuff begins

Today the strongback was completed and setting the frames and stringers and creating a boat shaped object can begin. I also had to test the laser level, this is a new thing for me, never had one before , no more strings, plumb bobs, line levels, levels and dumpy levels/ tube levels.  - we will see how it goes

 Strongback in progress

the strongback assembly is moving along

where the stem will fit

getting an idea of how access for plywood storage and hull plating/planking will work 

the keel plate and drilled bulb haves stored for later 

- NOTE to self,
it works much better if you don´t get your fingers between 50 kg of lead and the floor
