Was struggling to get my Nikon Coolpix 4300 to manually focus, finally gave up and switched it to autofocus.
So, the build is moving forward again.
Here's a pic of the hull pieces laminated to some scavenged cardboard.
The next pic shows the keel and base cut out. The third and fourth pics show the keel and ribs all glued to the base. No problems at all so far. Only mistake was on my part. The pilsbury cardboard box I laminated the sheet to, is more warped than I'd first thought. Hopefully gluing the deck on top of it will straighten it up.
