Hi John

Have you made sure all the formers are seated all the way down on the false keel as this can cause the type of problem your having.

Regards

Id have to go along with Andy and say to check your formers are all fitted as far as they can into the slots, they may be very tight so you need really push them in. Some more pics might help, perhaps if we can see the bottom of the formers at the false keel. Good luck with it anywayBigGrin

Yep sure was 2 hours with acetone to get it off but was worth it cos i didnt damage anything taking it off, also i am going to jig it up to morrow and make sure everything is spot on, no twists etc etc then i can carry on with the build.

It`s sometimes a steep learning curve, but when you start recognising issues,you learn how to avoid them in the future.

Nice result. BigGrin
