In Response To: Inverted Hull: How Many Forms? (Lloyd E. Peterson)

: How many internal forms did you use?

: On my Bluefin I have the two bulkheads and two temporary forms.

: This inverted construction sounds better, although requiring more setup work.

: Tack welding from the inside would allow bigger welds because they would be
: covered later by the fillet. Outside tack welding would require small
: welds to avoid messing up the hull.

: Was that a difficulty?

: Here I am building my work space while checking the BB every two hours.

: Coffee plus check ..

i forget how many forms (lots). see attached link. :D sorry about that but i'm busy too. sanding the deck of my wifeys expedition sport today. to keep from staining the deck with schmutz i masked off the area between the stitches with (hehe) masking tape.
