Not quite sure what is the correct name for this tool, but here it is.
As Im building the Igdlorssuit and as it is the ancestor to the Anas Acuta I want to find out what the differences of these kayaks are in terms of shape.

That means borrowing an Anas and measuring it up, a job that needs this tool. Its not my invention, seen a million of them in smaller sizes, and I think I have seen one here around the same size as mine. It only needs two strips going from the sides to the sheerline, then it is perfect!
