Finally started half-hull models to help decide next full size boat project. Will use Beach Pea as first test since I’ve never used this method. Very interesting approach – called the “Lift Method”. Signed up for WBS class this summer but thought I could figure out on my own.

 

Lofting Copies Made

 

Drawing Data Glued To Pattern Material

 

Patterns Cut and Shaped

 

Stacking Patterns With Spacers To Get A Feel For Sizes

 

Lifts Stacked In Jig (Basswood To Carve Easy)

 

Lifts In Position – Glue Up next

 

Will Keep Patterns – Maybe Make BeachPea Model From Cherry
