: Hi Douglas

: It sounds to me as if the beveled stem form is for use if you are
: going without an inner stem. Just tape the thing up, staple the
: strips to it as ypu go along, and pull it out when the hull is
: glassed, then a fillet inside afterward.

: Otherwise you need to cut the bevel off the stem form and place
: your inner stem laminations in place of it.

: Don't forget to tape all areas that you don't want glue to Bond to,
: otherwise it is in there for good.

Hi Et,
I messed-up the form. It looks like an axe head. It would be easier to just cut another form.

Gosh this is fun!
