TV 15 32 stitch question
While our 10 year old Granddaughter was finishing up her UJ 12 footer, I cut out a 15 32 out of Luan I had in the shop. The plan was to use the luan for SS &G patterns. After some thought, I decided to use the luan and build a 15 32 for experience, ie my first stitch and glue could and would have some mistakes.
After drilling the form holes measured right –but from the wrong end, it has been fairly uneventful and a good time. I’m having some problems getting the joint between the floor and the sides to meet on the edges. In some places the floor panel wants to come up a little inside the side panel. I suspect it has something to do with the way I have stitched the forms to the sides. Maybe I need a stitch-- form to side near the bottom. Maybe just a lack of patience, I plan to continue with the tumble homes and see if it helps the floor to side joint.
I’m guessing one of you experienced geezers can take a look at the pictures and immediately see where I’m going wrong. I’m open to any and all suggestions.
