[QUOTE="TheGrandestPoobah, post: 496132, member: 31866"] Alright, made good headway on some framing. got the side-rails all done. Started framing out what will be front deck and storage. planning ahead to where a quick disconnect seat base will go has determined where the first vertical uprights need to be. I am trying to make cuts on the verticals fairly precise to avoid loading rivets in torsion, and keep vertical load on the angle (rivets are just keeping it all together, ideally) fitting these pieces was fun, check the micro-chamfer facing the slot, this is to accommodate the rounded inside corner of the angle that will sit atop it. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20230318_161657.jpg"]113957[/ATTACH] These ended up going together really well, and it feels rock solid when standing on it. taking time for the toight fight was worth it. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20230318_164107.jpg"]113958[/ATTACH] definitely not aerospace level of precision, but i'd say it's pretty darn good for someone whose targeted instagram ads keep recommending books for "Managing adult ADD, how to not feel like a failure". frick off, instagram, I feel great and my boat is going to look sweet.
