Panga 20 Build

So I have purchased my plans, wood, and some of the epoxy/fiberglass to start my Panga 20. I'll be documenting every step of the way. I have started with the jig and have placed Frame A and the Bow mold. I decided to use MDF for the frames. This will allow me to start now as it will take awhile to receive the plywood. I decided to use all Okoume. The caribeanna in the second pic is the look I'm going for.

I'll be placing Frame B tomorrow evening. I decided to use a self leveling cross beam laser level. So far it seems to be working. I'm also verifying the measurements to make sure the laser is correct.

I’m viewing your photos on an I-Pad pro.
The pictures are oriented correctly for me. All are correct.
If you are uploading your photos to the BBC site, there is a rotate photo function.

At least on my iPhone I find it useful to have the phone oriented correctly when taking photos. Home button underneath or on the right.

Use the forum gallery and all those problems go away.

I placed Station B and quickly learned the cross beam laser moves when I'm pushing on the strongbacks. To solve this, I anchored the strongbacks in each end of the jig with concrete anchor bolts. It's not moving now. I've also made some marks that line up with the vertical laser so I can verify that everything is straight.
