picture yourself looking down into the bow of the boat standing forward of it.� you are looking down at the stem and the material that it took to construct the stem section.� this video depicts the drawing of half of that view on flat paper... it can be hard to grasp the picture and the detail, but that is why i talked about what i was doing as i was doing it.�
then next photo is several of these done on the stem of my 2.5 meter dinghy.� with these sections you only need to do as many as you need that much detail, so this means, that if you have a very large boat and the stem angle does not change a lot then you wont need very many and can space them out a good distance, and vice versa.
Good stuff Chris ....Bravo!!!!

How is it? What a great medium video is for capturing and explaining how to loft a stem section. Both James and yourself have shown by producing this that you do indeed have an indepth understand of the issues involved here. Can you imagine how many words it would take to explain this without the aid of the video?Keep making videos when needed they are great to watch when inserted into your blog. Its allmost like being there.
