Frame B

The next frame constructed was Frame B. Frame B was relatively simple and I didn’t take many photos.

Frame B assembled


Frame C

Frame C was a more complex frame and I took a bit of time with the geometry and measurements.

Setting out Frame C

Frame C glued


Frame D

Frame D was another that I took few photos of but was built in the same way as the others.

Frame D glued


Frame T

Frame T was glued up without the plywood transom sheet as other builders recommended installing this after the stringers were complete.


I glued the frame together with a sheet of plastic separating the ply transom sheet so I had the advantage of using the ply as a set out guide.

I should note that where I could I filled the little spaces created between the cord of the gusset plates and the frame with timber to reduce the amount of little gaps for water and dirt to gather.


More frame making to come.
