• Once the bow and stern frame sections have been inserted
to the skin, they begin to take the curved shape of the
kayak. It will be easier to slide tubes together when the
tubes are in a straight line to each other.
• The black Delrin block on the extension bars points to the
bow. Slide the bars open, and join to the bow and stern
sections.
• Expand the chine bars as you did the keel bar, till the
spring button appears in the first hole.
• Expand the gunwale bars to the first hole.
• Go back, and expand the keel to the second hole.
• Expand chine and gunwales to the second hole.
