Frames are in

I have to admit, I'm a bit obsessed with this boat.  I spent quite a few hours today (a Sunday)  cutting out all of the frames, and stitching them into place.  I still need to filet all of the seams on the hull (except the center seam which I taped last night).  I debated fileting and taping the chines before I put the frames in, but I decided that it would probably be better to get the true shape of the hull before doing any of the fileting
A couple of the other builders of i550's suggested putting castors on the cradle.  I have to thank them profusely for that idea.  It made building this thing a whole lot easier.
