Shaping Up the Transom

In my post Step #3 – Sawing Wood, I didn’t go into much detail about cutting the transom.  What I left you with was a trapezoid I cut out of plywood.  A pretty lame attempt by me, I admit it.  This is another short blurb, but hopefully it will give you a little more:

To give our boat some lovely curvature, I drew a bend along the wide end of the trapezoid.

You can see where I already began cutting before I snapped this photo

Then, I used a jig saw to cut along the line.

And we got our transom...
