wired

Finally stitched the hull together.  All appears to be level and square, although I am going to double check the transom prior to tabbing all in place.  I was using copper wires, but ran out and got some crappy 18 ga at the local hardware store.  Not all copper is equal.  This stuff broke by looking at it.  Even doubled up, it would not twist without breakage.  Therefore, I switched back to 16 ga steel wire.  I will tab the panels in place, remove the wires, then finish the filling and glassing of the seams.  This worked pretty well on the last skiff I built.

I am happy that all the seams really look nice wired up.  the stem is still a little funky, so will wait until all is in place prior to filling and glassing.
