I invested in a laser level and I don't know how I would do this job without it. Even with the laser this is still no easy task. I'll give the good news first, and then discuss my continued learning. Here is the picture showing Bulkheads 5, 6, and 7 (transom) all lined up and looking pretty.
Now here is a picture of where the laser hits when I add in BH4.
I had figured (from eyesight) that bulkhead 5 was the tallest, so if I started from there I could adjust all the other bulkheads up (away from the rails) to lined them up. The picture above is where the laser hits on BH5 from BH4. So now I have to go back and move 5, 6, and 7 up to meet the BH 4 line. I'm a bit bummed by this, but it is another example of me just trying to get it done quick without taking the time to think things through.
I will see if I can spend a bit of time with the drawings tonight to make sure that BH4 is the highest in this regard so I don't repeat my mistake.
