Alright I did a little bit today I made the top curved braces that connect the formers
out of 1/4" spruce while I was at it I cut out the keel also.

I also checked the sides of the formers w/ a straight edge and they all look very close BUT former B -13 seems to stick out a bit to far? puzzling All the others line up when using a 12" straight edge BUT NOT 13??

I try to find a close up shot of the side on the scale plane to see if there's a step in the side or and unusual dip or something?

I'm waiting to see Martins photos to see what he did here??
I know the sides of the scale plane were less than perfect from the photos I've seen. But this seems to be a bit much?

Check the photos,
