I think we have a misunderstanding here. I was talking about a hypothetical Brent boat not your personal boat. "That tall" was referring to the...
So? Increase the cross section. Adds weight no? Compared to adding spreaders (frames) to it. No, it's a structure subject to external...
Apples and oranges. A pressure vessel isn't subject to buckling forces the way a displacement one is. A submarine is to a boat as an oxygen...
Brent, why do submarines have transverse frames? Since curved sections add phenomenal strength and there is far more transverse curvature in a...
Send it to me for safekeeping. :D
You haven't even come close to proving that other building methods are outdated or that yours is cheaper. You have nothing but unfounded assertions.
I bet at least one of those libraries has a scanner you can use, just sayin. :D
Umm, so going over all the edges and knocking the slag off manually and then going over them again with a grinder after the hull is fitted up is...
That's what irritates me the most, it would be one thing if Brent were arguing that his methods are adequate but he goes way beyond that trying to...
Oops, it's not the # icon it's the yellow one next to it as Wynand pointed out.
It's pretty hard to tell actually. :D
Put the text you want to quote between these tags like so (remove the *). Upper or lower case doesn't matter. as I'm laying out my post. Another...

Thanks, good point about the factory edges, I hadn't thought of that. I know I'm pretty much beating a dead horse with this but Brent is a...
What? I use them for this all the time. Are you thinking of a cup brush maybe? Or you could grind the plates first and have a perfect V to...
Exactly, all the seams in your hull design are outside corner joints (except the last couple feet of the aft centerline and that could be...
I didn't say they were of unequal length, you were trying to say they were unequal length to cover your ***! LOL! I'm saying they were of...
I missed this line in Brent's response (learn to use quote tags for f#%@ sake! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBCode) Then what was all that...
Because you warped it over to starboard with a come-a-long like I said! ********! I can post more screenshots of slaggy edges on the aft...
It was not late 90’s, Alex started this thread in 2001 and he was still talking about building a 40’er. I bought the DVD in 2006 which wasn’t...
