Hi All,BigGrin

Just about to give the hull the big sanding session Crying , but looking forward I have a question about cutting the ports.
When I have taken extra care in marking out all the ports, do I cut them with the upper and lower faces parallel to the base or level to the appropriate face they are going through?

A simple diagram is added below, hope this helps to define what I am trying to get across Confused .

Hi Karl,BigGrin

Thanks for confirming my thoughts. Wanted to ask, because, when you use a marker jig it will sit flat to the outer surface of the hull and needed to know which way to angle the cut (albeit a very small angle to the outer surface of the hull)for accuracy.

Many Thanks. Cool
