Epoxying - rudder trailing edge to rudder spar
Tonight I glued the trailing edge to the rudder spar. The jigging and alignment took a while to get exactly right.
I got a nice straight piece of dressed pine, clamped it to the ceiling and screwed it to the flat bench. From that I made a little wooden "hook" to hold the trailing edge perfectly vertical. After lots of squaring, swearing and digital levelling I epoxied it on.

It's a British design so tea must be consumed during construction. Even if it's in a weird yellow plastic cup.
