Let’s get started.
Attach the jig board to your FLAT bench (or 12x48
ply) with screws, nails, clamps or whatever you
need, to make sure it’s attached to the surface.
Remove bulkheads 1, 2, and 3 from the sheet.
Note that the bulkheads are marked. These should
face the rear, when glued into the jig.
Put bulkheads 1, 2 and 3 into the jig, engaging the
tabs in the slots.
Starting from the front of the jig, glue the tabs of
bulkhead 1 to the jig.
Use a square to ensure that it’s 90 degrees to the
jig. Also make sure that the tabs don’t protrude
under the jig.
Use CA and accelerator or Titebond III.
When dry and square, glue bulkheads 2 and 3 the
same way. Use the square.
Remove both keels.
Using CA or
Titebond lll
, glue both keels together.
Be sure that the keels are aligned with each other.
Clamp while drying.
Laminate 4A to the back of BH4. The back of the
bulkhead has BH4 engraved on the tab.
Glue bulkheads 4 and 5 to the jig as before.
Find the four 1/8 ply engine rails. Laminate both
sets. Sand them smooth with 80.
Laminate the two shaft supports together.
Clamp until cured.
