Rustyreel Your boat turned out looking great!! The black bottom paint looks good on there. Do you have any pictures of your console area? Running 50 that's awesome!!!! So far are you pleased with the performance of the boat? Handling and so on.... Take care Matt

Yes you have to cut them yourself. I used a good quailty Bosh jig saw. He does sell a kit that has all of the frames cut for you and also the stem. You don't receive any type of cad files. I talked with graham this morning and he was able to answer all of my questions and concerns. Nice fella. As for cutting the frames yourself..... It's not to bad. It's very time consuming. If I had to do it again I would probably just go ahead an buy the kit. I just hope that my cuts are good enough. I have the frames within less than .5-.25mm tolerance. But don't let it scare you. Like I said its not to bad. The drawings are easy to understand but the stem scarfs.

Guys I've started my ok20. Frames are all about done and now I've started on the stem and keel. Just a couple of quick questions.... I didn't buy the kit so I must cut out the stem myself. My question is how many scarfs should it receive? On my construction drawings it shows 9 scarfs. But on my 1:1 mylars it's only showing 1. It's right at the big bend. I didn't know if 1scarf would be okay or not. Then it would get another scarf where it attaches to the keel. Also when it's time for assembly should I go ahead and glue up the doublers then place the frames into position or wait till the frames are put into place and then attach the doublers. Last question... On the transom should I go ahead and do a rough cut out (leaving 1-2" around the whole part)of the shape on all layers then glue on the jig.. Or should I glue all layers on the jig then place template, trace and then cut.. Everyone's builds are looking great!! I can't wait to get mine as far long as some of yours!! Thanks Matt
