A look at the Port side of the float with some planking left to do yet. I've been using Cyno exclusivel on this assembly just to speed the build time up. |

Planking applied to the Stbd. side of the float and the high spots sanded off with a fairing board. Much work to do yet. |

I couldn't wait to see if it fit: it does! Now to draw the RH well, install some hardwood for the L/G attachment poinits and start planking the main float. |

Holy Crap !!! Success on the first draw. I probably used up all my luck the first week of the New Year. |

...and then I had to make a right-hand (and left-hand) master of the wheel well. These are going to be some complicated deep draws for the vac-form. Plan on using .030 styrene. |

I have a plan that first required me to make a vac0form box about 7 inches square. |
