Hmmmmm....miss by an inch,miss by a mile.I wouldn't dare risk life
and limb with a chainless husky or is it shameless hussy(?) who
would tolerate 1/2" and even if my dreams would lead me down such a
path,Pesky would be there with a razor sharp tongue and extra long
seamstress scissors........YIKES!!!

govermee work :-)

David,

You're a genius, and I though I are one!

That's it! Uereka! Halejula! Shazamm!

Built that way, your module, and your earstwhile followers, will only
differ 1/2 inch (just a teensy 1/4" (5mm) on each side), I mean,
who'll notice a 1/4" on a bobbing, twisting, shifting, heaving, 60
feet long TIMS?

Other than everyone, since we've (read YOU'VE) gone and pointed our
my design inadequacies to all now, That is!

Geeeez Peter,

Did ya' HAVE ta' ask that one?

Without thinking, I kinda' built one on the outside, and one butted.
Total difference is 1/2" each side, and I was surely hoping no eagle
eyed boat builder would notice. What with the bobbing up and down of
the sections being lashed, the stretch of the lines, the roiling
wake, I really hoped this wouldn't come up.

I guess I'm saying, you silver tonged devil, that it doesn't really
matter (either way is close enuf for the girls I go with!, I don't
know about you, I'll have to ask Pesky!) I mean, what's a 1/2 inch
(just a few measly milimeters) among friends?

If ya' want to be pernickity, make the overall width 48", by trimming
1 inch off'n the bottom and build the sucker on that, to finish 48"
wide, not counting those husky rub rails, of course.

All in all, it'll end up close enough for government work, our, or
theirs!

Peter, obviously the only fair answer is to do one side sitting and one side
lapping. If you've got them on the wrong side, remember that each module is
reversible (unless Cap'n Bruce is going in reverse, in which case a mad
scramble will ensue, if not already in progress). These things are really
quite simple when you reason it through.

Hi Bruce,
Hate to be a nit-picker but I just gotta know;do the side panels
of the TIMs sit on the bottom panel or do they lap past it on the
outside and cover the edge grain of the bottom panel?

Sincerely,

Peter Lenihan,TIMs section builder to be............

Hi Peter, and anyone else bringings a TIMS section to the Kingston

loosely) are up on my website, you can navigate there from the TIMS
