The next step is to place a Chine strip around the board from the tail to the nose. This line for the Chine strip is very important as it is basically your real outline of the shape of the board so important to get it looking right.
The Chine Strip as in pic 1 you will see I am trying to bend it right around the nose to get a full solid piece around that part without having to make a joint on the nose.
To bend these strips the old iron and wet towel is called out and loads of patience, it will come right just takes time. In the end I don't feel comfortable with it so I decide I will put in a solid nose and so only need to run the chine strip up till that last frame.(pic 2)
