LASTWOODSMAN | Easy Built FF-62 Fleet Canuck | Parked | 20-Sep-17 09:13 | | Views : 398 | The crossmember planks are then slipped in UNDER the top and bottom center keels, with the crossmember plank ends sitting ON TOP of the rails, where they are pinned in place. The Rails are just high enough to raise the side edge of the finished former side, just above the building board. |
LASTWOODSMAN | Easy Built FF-62 Fleet Canuck | Parked | 20-Sep-17 09:12 | | Views : 326 | The Rails are 1/4" X 1/2" X 12" hard stick balsa, and the Crossmembers are 1/16" X 3/8" X 3" balsa planks. The crossmembers do not slide, but are pinned down to the rails, snugly sandwiching and holding each former. |

LASTWOODSMAN | Easy Built FF-62 Fleet Canuck | Parked | 20-Sep-17 09:09 | | Views : 335 | The Float lies sideways in the jig, with the top "flat" of the float, which is formed by the top flat edge of the formers and the top of the upper center Keel, - that flat is sitting flush to the nearest rail. |
LASTWOODSMAN | Easy Built FF-62 Fleet Canuck | Parked | 20-Sep-17 09:06 | | Views : 347 | I knew I had to make a jig/assembly fixture to securely hold the half-finished float, in order to glue the Float's "other side", half-formers and stringers. This is the little micro-jig setup I made, that uses the same principle as the larger jigs. |
