First step is to shape the chine strips to match the frames. This took some time even using 80 grit sandpaper. I wore a dust mask I no longer can tolerate inhaling sawdust or in this case sanding dust.

The outside edges of the hull planking are oversize and will be cut back to the chine and the rear frame. In the photo #3 you can see that the T-1 and T-2 pieces have been epoxy glued in place on frame 12. They form the rounded stern of the boat.
