G'day,

I won't be home tomorrow, or much of the weekend. Or mornings next
week. School holiday stuff.

It is a different technique to the first hull which had no compund
curves. The technique was definitely a success, although I completely
ballsed up the second piece when I did not line the frames up
properly. I then ballsed up the first end as well trying to make them
match.

This one will havecompound curve, below the waterline. The next one,
maybe above it as well.

regards,

Rob
