: Hi Sean,
: I'm just finishing up a 14 foot great auk for my son. I did bevel
: the top of the bow stem as you've suggested.

Front of my great Auk. no internal stem. Beveled the front, but not the top. the half-forms are beveled slightly. Duct tape keeps the glue from sticking to the forms.

Good Luck!
