John again. This is my stern mess in the picture. The bottom keel strips can not take the sharp bend from the last form to the stern. For now I am going to strip up from the walnut shears and worry about the problem later. Perhaps I could run a strip through the middle of the concave portion of the last cross section and work from there. Or I may just have to reshape the stern. I will appreciate all suggestions.
John
