Just thought of another thing painful experience taught me. If you want to save your forms for another boat (even if they are cardboard), don't put any ribs near the forms on the side of the forms facing the center of the boat. (Sentences like that make me wish I still had a tech editor) If you do, you can't tilt the form towards the center because of the rib, and you can't tilt it towards the end of the boat because the stringers are converging. I had to cut up half of my forms to get them out.
