Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone has any ideas where I went wrong.
I'm building from a kit and have the lower hull stitched together. Everything seemed to come into alignment perfectly, all bulkheads right on and everything else in place as it should be. Took some measurements from bow to the transom corners to ensure symmetry. All good.
However, when I laid a straight edge across the floor supports it appears that the support I pre-glued on to bulkhead #2 is about 1/2" too high! Doh!
I went back to the plans an they show that the top of that support should be 5 9/16" above the base (lowest point) of bulkhead #2. So I went back and measured it guess what? 5 9/16" exactly!
How could I be so far off when everything seems so right? Any ideas why this could be? I know I can fix it when I start laying the floor boards by trimming it down and adding the same amount to the bottom of the support. It's not really that big a thing BUT I would like to know where I made my error.
Thanks,
Bill
