Ama decks

For some reason I thought I needed an access port in each ama. So I made holes and rings and glued the rings to the undersides of the decks:
I didn't bother with neatness, partly because these amas are supposed to be concept test units, but mostly because who cares about the inside. There will be a plate on the outside, and the rings make a thicker part to bed screws in.

All taped up and nowhere to go (tape is substituting for clamps):
 I enjoy that the nice sweeping curve of the sheer comes from straight-edged planks.
The "rub rails" were flattened on their top edges to accept the decks, and rounded underneath for the glass cloth to grip without kinking and making air pockets, which would happen with sharp corners.
