Finally starting my build thread after a long introduction post. I have the strong back done. The center seems to dip down some. I'll need to raise the center form a smidge. I had to work on my Rogue and the pad is a mess. I'll need to clean and tidy this area!

I'll show the level, perpendicular and parallel to the strong back here.

South end. A little lean here, the end leg isn't finished yet.

I'm looking forward to watching this progress.

I use a laser level for setting my forms so the strongback being level and straight isn't so important. It makes things pretty easy and you wouldn't believe all the uses you can find for it with other projects.

Uh Oh !!! Why don't forms 4a and 4b match? Does this have something to do with the rocker? I don't have the plans for this but I might have to buy them. I would think the forms on the left and right of center would be identical?

I have the forms 0-5 Here is 5A the stem, I'm not sure why the top of the stem is pointing to a few inches below the 4a form?


5A, 4A. 3A here.

I bought these forms. They are all labeled.

I just realized looking at the pictures the stem is 90° wrong and backwards.

I got it all worng!!! Ooops.
