Hi I'm new to the group, but not really boat building. I've built many
models, now its time to get real. I am planning on building a Crackerbox,
ever heard of such a thing? Glen-L has the plans & a frame kit. I'm going
to go that route. Anybody ever build a Glen-L boat with their frames? How
do you go about getting your work "table" plum & level & true when you are
assembling the frame work??? Make sense?

I had never heard of it , but looked it up ,..looks like it'd be a fun boat!
As far as the table , a level , a plumb bob , and a square . Use the square
off the table top ,not the floor , line the bob up with the square ! Simple
easy and effective !
