The stem is placed

I had some things that needed to be clarified before building could carry on. Today the stem was placed, It sometimes is needed to do some traditional methods to build something

because the laser level was so close to the stem and at the KWL it did not project down far enough to check plumb. Plumb bob to the rescue

 Putting in the sloping frame

today was spent putting in the sloping frame at a 60 degree angle, checking dimensions and stations and bracing the frames

 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.
