If you put a rolling bevel on both A and B, you won't have to twist B as much to make it fit.

: was the one I put in my jig and tapered. Always. So I tried to taper this
: piece and fit it to the strip already on the boat. On all of the strips I
: glued to we will call that surface edge surface(A),but in this case I was
: going from surface to the inside surfice of the already fastened strip
: that we will call surface (B). So the glueing surface running from (A) to
: (B) must be faired into a smooth rolling taper so we can call it (A)once
: more. When you don't do this you run into corner edge of the strip running
: from (A) to (B). It seems so simple now but at the time I was at my wits
: end.
