[QUOTE="typed by ben, post: 330365, member: 11717"] thanks and yeah that was eye opening. they must have all kinds of randos in there slapping these things together and bucking rivets. i cant imagine trying to run a manufacturing business without consistency. i did some cardboard as well in my planning stages to get a better idea of what relationships i would have. i should have read the cards right there and noticed that the boat was out of wack but i chalked it up to operator error and the flimsiness of the cardboard. it took actually cutting the boat and cutting metal before i could see it for what it was. i think where prototyping is really going to come in handy is laying out the deck (because its expensive to mess up a sheet) and making bulkheads for the trolling motor and foot pedal recess.
