A lot of work in those laminated frames. !
You must be a genius to do that for a one off .
What method do you use to get the frame shapes ?
I made the mast partner out of oak for my Sailboat . It has a lot of shape to it. ( the boat is all wood )
The piece is about 8' long with a pretty good radius in it . Is about 5 inches thick , 4 inches wide , made with several laminated pieces .
I ended up jigging it up on plywood using pieces of steel angle iron bolted dwn to attain the curve .
I am quite sure you got the frame shapes quite differently .
For me, it was Water , steam, epoxy . Took a couple days.
And I thought I was the only boat builder on here ....LOL
She will be pretty !
Looks like some tumblehome in the aft , Love the look .
