Nose job

Well its official, all the tools are done. Spent last night into this-morning sanding and polishing the hull tool, its finally done. No pics because of technical difficulties, but I'll have some tomorrow. Waiting on my supplies to get shipped, so not much I can do as far as layup right now.

I've been messing with the design some more.



Originally I was going to try to shape the reverse bow while the hull was still on the mould, but that would be a real pain so I'm going to lay the hull up about 15cm short and mount a seperate bow on after. It should make it easier to pop the part and also makes it possible for me to implement the rounder bow I've been thinking about.

Next is a new gantry to fit the new rudder strut, I'm thinking of shortening it by about 15cm as well. I also need to add the new L3 inspired trap rack (wider beam, with a mid step tube like the R-class).
