Frame work, fillets and hanging frames on jig.

 I have been slowly picking away at the frames.  Completing them as far as possible on the bench which does add quite a bit of time for me.  They are all assembled as of September 09 2022 but still require finishing with with fillets and blocking.  I will then coat every thing with epoxy again as there are some areas with construction and and sanding that are now do not have epoxy on them, and some pieces I missed during the initial coating of all parts.  The screen shot from Facebook is from Martell Marine (Gregg Martell)  https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=martell%20marine  Every joint could be filleted, this is lot of work and material (time and money) all on its own.











Frames set up had to be readjusted once I used the side panels and base panel to check the length.  

I added extra supports to the frame/jig to try and limit movement when applying stringers, as it was relatively to move a frame.
