Don the assembly of those frames looks very good to me. Obviously one will only be able to really tell once you have done the beveling. Maybe one of the other builders can chip in with Frame 41 onwards, because I am not nearly there yet. As you know, I have had another big issue on my hands that needed sorting out. That took up a LOT of time.
 
Hey Don, frame 41 is put together exactly like frame 40. The bevel is changing direction now that you are past midships so now every frame will be bevelled towards the stern. The extra line you see on the drawing on frame 41 is the laser etched line on the frame itself so you are understanding things right!!
If this is not clear let me know and I'll try better to explain.,
 
HI DON, NEED TO PROCESS THIS RIGHT NOW, I WILL SEE IF I CAN EXPLAIN, ON THE FRAMES THAT BEVEL TOWARDS THE BOW WHE I PUT THEM TO GETHER THE REAR GETS LINED UP, THE FRONT IS ON THE SECOND LINE DOES IT STAY THE SAME OR CHANGE SORRY FOR BRAIN NOT WORKING YET. GOD BLESS STAY SAFE YOU AND YOURS DON

Don, the difference on frame 27 is due to the change in deck height. Leave it staggered. I don’t think it’s is supposed to be beveled. Someone ahead of me can verify.
Checked the plans, that is definitely where the deck elevation change occurs on frame 27. Front side is lower deck, back side is upper deck. All frames after that, 28 and up, have the new elevation on the back.
