Cut out the ama frames. You need two sets.
Set up the ama frames and stem. Measure the location of the frames from the bow.
Set up the inner transom. It will be cut out later so you can glass the inside of the strip planking.
Support piece for transom angle.
Installing the stringers.
Planking the hull. Bevel the planks on one side to follow curve of the hull. Start the planking on the center of the frames. I used #4 screws to temporarily fasten the planks to the frames. The planking was edge glued with Titebond 3. I used small scraps of wood, and a hot glue gun, to align the planks in between the frames, until the glue dries.
Rough cut the last plank so it overlaps the chine stringer, then trim the plank with a router, guiding the router on the chine stringer.
Remove all the temporary screws and alignment blocks, and fair out the planking, using a plane and sanding block.
