Tonight I built and fitted the angled front deck beams. This was pretty tricky as they sit in fresh air, needed to be deeper than any cedar strip I had left, and are curved to match the upper shape of frames one and two.
I carefully notched and angled the ends to fit against the inner gunwhale and frame 2 and cut two lengths to laminate one above the other. I then used a pencil taped to the end of a long strip to trace the curve of frames one and two before fretsawing the beams to match. Then laminated, glued and clamped them in place ... phew
