[QUOTE="typed by ben, post: 331771, member: 11717"] yeah the plan is to tack the frame near the bench in place, that will be the first assembly. after that ill tack the deck frame and that will make the second assembly. the top will get seamed out of the boat, then ill drop it all back in and weld it in the boat so all my fits are good, since none of this stuff is square. the legs that go to the hull will be bolted in im thinking. ill weld some gussets on each end of a piece of tube to make an upper case I shape. those will drop down from the deck, then bolt to pieces of angle that run perpendicular to the stringers. best way i can think of since the stringers at the front of my boat are at some odd angles. thanks dude i hope it turns out too. its custom made for ME and i think thats the neatest part. when you build your boat you gotta do it in a way that makes sense to you.
